Bug Description
I just found that alpha channel from embedded images isn't removed from the SVG file when the embedded images are deleted.
I created a copy of an existing file with embedded images, deleted those images and saved, and the result was the attached file, 1.2 MB for a file with two short text blocks and cropping marks.
I wondered why the file was so heavy, and fond that the alphas were still embedded.

Did you embed those images with Inkscape or was the file initially imported as PDF? (reminds me of the masked images in the SVG files attached to bug #427540)
Did you try to unmask/unclip the images before or use 'vacuum defs' after deleting them?
