Should we include an "I'm sick of this, leave me alone" button next
to the infinite "Next >" button? ;-)

The issue with Welcome page is that you see it only once: when you
start Eclipse for the first time, then you close it and you won't
see it until next time you install Eclipse. That's my personal
(non-)usage of the Welcome page.
However, although it may not be the top-visible place, it has the
merit of being an easy and possible one. So +1 for making this on
the Welcome page until we find some better places.
Or we can be more integrated via some sort of JSON API if
somebody has the necessary cycles to do the work. The web-based
option gives us the best of both worlds. In either case, I'd
rather avoid unsolicited pop-ups.
Rest|JSON API would have the advantage of being useful for both
Eclipse-dialogs based approach and Web/HTML approach.
Both would be relatively easy from a server POV. Though,
managing an unbounded list of questions may present a UI
challenge.
I think about 1 question per page and an infinite "Next >"
button.
My sense is that the Eclipse UI portions belong in the EPP.
Ok, thanks for the hint.
