Thank you very much for the list of bugs!
Maybe the original could be 'hidden' in the <defs> section (like <symbol>'s, with a toggle in the dialog to 'unhide' it for editing).
Alternatively the first clone tile could be skipped, as proposed in Bug #309873 in Inkscape: “skip first tile clone” https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/309873
I see. Has there been any discussion on which solution is preferred? I would personally prefer to see the second solution, and possibly some sort of border appear around the original when one of the clones is selected with the Tile Clones box active. Does that seem acceptable?
Skipping the first clone tile and using the original in place breaks 'color' mode for the first tile:
Modifying the color of clones only works when the color of the original is unset (the unset fill of the original is rendered black, its unset stroke is not rendered at all; and the clones use the individually assigned colors).
