Hi Lars,
Maybe I did not understand your question. Sorry if that is the case.
Did you Ctrl+F2? Here is a quick tutorial  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-0cnYSEg4V4 
Good luck,

I haven't really understood what you are trying to do, but depending on
how you open the files, all the objects will be grouped together: If you
import the svgs into an inkscape file, in order to process them with
something else than the path tool you first want to ungroup them.

Cheerz,
Lars
