Re: Will there be an opt-out option:
Short answer: No.
The reasoning behind not having a startup screen is that Inkscape should load very fast (or instantly).
We've decided to apply this logic in reverse, and say that if Inkscape loads instantly you should not see the loading screen at all, therefore there is no need to opt out.
As an aside, you should only see this screen once when Inkscape caches the icons, and only if it's taking longer than expected.
If Inkscape is loading instantly or very fast for you, you will notice no change at all.
Another note: this screen is non-interactive, and contains no widgets or buttons at all, and it will vanish immediately when the Inkscape UI loads, so it will never be in the way.
