I mean they're not exactly invasive and certainly not hard to answer. Asked or not asked they're nothing to worry about one way or the other. The only reason I remember them being asked is because it was done by an agent going person to person in the line waiting to get to the ticket agent. Earned us a little initialed sticker on the back of our passports.
When I transit LHR to get onto an AA flight from LHR to the US, the airline/contractors (for the airline) tend to ask me different kinds of questions -- one sort if I check in airside for the AA flight, and more of the above sort if I check in land-side.
