Note that for the vast majority of editors who see this page, their first visit
is right after account creation when they are given this page, in which case it
does in fact start with "Welcome". 

The use case of a registered editor visiting who is not in fact new is not very
well served right now, since it's not the primary purpose. Obviously that use
of "Welcome back" is confusing however. 

Ultimately we need to reconsider the page title altogether. All new users are
getting a welcome notification now on enwiki (and they will anywhere else Echo
is deployed), so the use of welcome is redundant.
