Unfortunately, it's rather slow for multiple objects because it needs to invoke Inkscape to calculate the bounding box for each one, but at least it's automated. Put the two files in your extension directory (share/extensions), and you'll see a new menu item called "Bounding Box" under Effects > Visualize Path.
