(Get the code!)
A'symbol' (it's actually a clone of a (hidden) <symbol> object) can be converted to an 'editable' object like other clones: select and unlink (see menu 'Edit > Clone').
Apparently blocks in dxf are converted to SVG symbols (which is great Imho, that's IIRC very close to how blocks are used in AutoCAD).
The symbol btw is present in the Symbols dialog, but not visible rendered (no style information) - it can be selected by a click in the top-right area, and can be 'removed' from the drawing by using the button below the symbol icon view (if you prefer that to the 'unlink clone' method).
