You can control whether or not the dialog displays in the preferences.
If you set all the preferences, then the dialog won't have to open to
ask for them. If something is missing, the dialog will open.
There is a timing setting that you can use to shorten the time between
attempts to upload data. If the settings require it, the dialog will open.
A better solution would be to remove or stop the UDC. We have
discontinued its development and use, so the upload operation is a NOP
anyway.

The dialog box shouldn't have any effect on the Eclipse resource model
or any other workbench state. It just opens a dialog box. In fact, the
dialog box opens with setBlockOnOpen(false), so it should sit on top of
an otherwise completely functional workbench.
If you add
-Dorg.eclipse.epp.usagedata.recording.period=0
To your VM arguments in the launch configuration, it should force the
UDC to open the dialog with 15 minutes of on opening the workbench. That
may help with your testing.
The UDC actually holds off starting until after all the startup bundles
have been loaded and then runs passively in the background (until it
opens the dialog).
My gut feeling is that the UDC dialog is a red herring. If you provide
more information about the symptoms, I'll help where I can.
