Crash using extensions if selected object has no id.

Steps to reproduce:

  • open Inkscape
  • draw a rectangle
  • open the xml editor
  • delete the id attribute of the rectangle
  • keep the rectangle selected
  • run an extension (e.g. Render > Wireframe Sphere)

What happened?

What should have happened?

  • no crash.
  • Ideally an id is auto-generated for the object (so it can remain selected), but not crash is good enough
  • error message
