(Get the code!)
Another workaround to find empty 'Flowed text' objects:
1) 'Edit > Deselect'
2) activate the text tool
3) use <TAB> to cycle through all text objects in the drawing and watch the status line for the message "Type or edit flowed text (0 characters); Enter to start new paragraph"
4) use <DEL> or <Backspace> to delete the selected empty 'Flowed Text' object
5) continue with <TAB> until the first text object is selected again
Both issue as reported and workaround reproduced with Inkscape 0.46+devel r22575 on OS X 10.5.8.
Confirming this as bug because empty flowed text boxes should not be left behind invisible and barely selectable regardless of whether the flowed text object (svg:flowRoot containing svg:flowRegion and svg:flowPara) is part of the current SVG specification or is (not) recognized by other SVG viewers.
