Please note that guides cannot be selected. Making them selectable is probably a big task involving changing lots of inkscape's internals, so stay away from it (the spec doesn't want selectable guides which is good :).
This is the only part where I can't follow. What do you mean with "selectable"? Currently you can click on the guide and move it, or pop up a window with double click for its properties. But I think that's not what you mean.
What I mean is, that one cannot click once on a guide to select it like selecting objects. And then move it around with the arrow keys. This is not a very limiting issue, just wanted you to be aware of it. It is for example still possible to click once on a guide and then scroll to that guide in the guide properties dialog. Hmm.. now that I think of it, perhaps it is not as difficult to make guides selectable as I thought.....
In any case, it was sort of off topic because the spec doesn't mention it ;)
