Texts cannot be used in Boolean operations (and inset/outset) anymore

Steps to reproduce:

• open Inkscape
• click+drag with text tool for a Text-in-a-shape text, or create any other kind of text.
• type sth.
• select text, Path > Union

What happened?

Inkscape refuses to union the text, or to use it in any other Boolean operation, because, after converting it to paths, the text becomes a group and that group is not resolved.

What should have happened?

Inkscape should have created a path from the text.

Inkscape Version and Operating System:

• Inkscape Version: 1.0beta1 (7c928d9e, 2019-10-11)
• Operating System: Linux Mint 19.2

This is a relevant regression, possibly related to inbox#1020 (closed) .
