Inkscape's cairo-based importer just clips the entire page by the page rectangle (first image). Looks like your AI artist ignored the page size and drew the image larger than the page. Still, it should not do any clipping that was not in the original file - Miklós, can you make sure that your native importer is free from this defect?
Then, as the clipping is applied to the top-level group, when you ungroup it you lose the clip and everything becomes visible (second image). This is not a bug.
