Heya,

<hack alert>
One way to solve this is to set a environment variable in e.g. your .bashrc:

Example:
  export KDEV_DISABLE_PLUGINS=KDevWelcomePage

This variable takes a ';'-separated list of plugin IDs which will not be 
loaded. A plugin's ID can be found in the "Id" key in the plugin's .json file.
</hack alert>

Sorry, I don't think there's a better solution. I agree that is not entirely 
clear where a setting is stored as well. Even I as a maintainer am confused 
about this in KDevelop. :(

Regards,
Kevin
