Is there an inkscape namespace element that can specify that a path (or geometry) is not selectable. Alternatively can I define a "selection priority" or a "selection boundary", if you see what I mean

You can create a Layer (Layer/New Layer) and then use the XML Editor to drag your line into that layer. Once that's done, you can select the newly created layer from the layer pulldown list on the bottom left, and click it's "lock" icon. This will make everything in that layer unselectable.

(When you initially move your line into the layer, it will appear to be disconnected. Just move one of the objects it's attached to, and it'll snap back in place.)
