All temporary users have the temp user group so this can now be done using https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:QuickSurveys#Defining_an_audience (implemented in T404148: Make it possible to target users with certain user rights)
Jdlrobson-WMF moved T376206: Quicksurvey audience selection with TempAccounts from Bugs/small modifications to Next on the QuickSurveys board.
Jdlrobson-WMF closed T183995: Make it possible to survey users who have just taken or completed an action as Resolved.
Surveys can now be defined and displayed at run time using the API described in https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:QuickSurveys#Displaying_a_survey_with_advanced_targeting_requirements
Jdlrobson-WMF closed T380289: Support targeting users by enabled preference in QuickSurveys as Resolved.
This can now be achieved using these instructions: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:QuickSurveys#Displaying_a_survey_with_advanced_targeting_requirements
Jdlrobson-WMF closed T387846: Allow QuickSurvey to be used on SpecialPages, a subtask of T360996: Enable QuickSurveys to target users on different namespaces, as Resolved.
Jdlrobson-WMF closed T387846: Allow QuickSurvey to be used on SpecialPages, a subtask of T381886: Show survey to users of MinT for Wiki Readers, as Resolved.
You can now run quick surveys on special pages by configuring the namespaces key in audience definition as defined here (https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:QuickSurveys#Defining_an_audience)
Provided the relevant API is provided in T364954: Create "EditCountByMonth" method this can be achieved using the existing code by following documentation here:
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:QuickSurveys#Advanced_audience_targetting
Jdlrobson-WMF closed T364955: Enhance QuickSurvey targeting, a subtask of T362646: Enable more nuanced targeting and sampling on Quicksurveys, as Resolved.
Jdlrobson-WMF edited projects for T364954: Create "EditCountByMonth" method, added: MediaWiki-Core-Skin-Architecture; removed QuickSurveys.
I think this API would be useful but it shouldn't be exclusive to QuickSurveys as it could potentially be used elsewhere. This could be added inside MediaWiki core for example if it existed. Once that API exists you can use the API described in https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:QuickSurveys#Advanced_audience_targetting
This library is no longer deprecated after work in T404152: QuickSurveys should provide an API for applications (including special pages) to insert surveys into the page.. I am documenting it now on https://www.mediawiki.org/w/index.php?title=Extension%3AQuickSurveys
