Windows Store app crashes, quality reports, and CEIP

Microsoft's Antoine Leblond discusses here how the Windows Store dashboard shows app crashes, which is nice.

Separately, Microsoft has an article that talks about their Windows Customer Experience Improvement (CEIP) system, noting that CEIP is turned off by default in Windows 8. However, the article also says this:

When Windows 8 is installed and the computer is started for the first time, the Initial Configuration Tasks dialog box appears. Accepting the default recommendations for Initial Configuration Tasks turns on the Customer Experience Improvement Program

That to me indicates that most users will probably accept the default and CEIP will be turned on in most people's installs.

So my main question is: Are the quality reports in the Windows Store dashboard done through CEIP, or is CEIP bypassed and the reports are always sent for Windows Store apps?

Kind of related, do these quality reports work and send stack traces for C# apps as well as C++ apps?

I think this article might be able to give an answer: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/apps/hh967787.aspx

If I am not mistaken, the quality reports belong to the analytics data collection, which according to the article is always being gathered no matter if CEIP is enabled or not.
