For anyone who reads this question, I'm answering it myself. Forget about the horrible bundled ribbon control and use something else. Look for some of the alternatives here: What is the Best WPF Ribbon Control Suite? (like all good questions, it's closed though).

So far, Fluent Ribbon Control Suite looks like the best free option to me. Basic functionality just works (no problems with borders and maximizing, resising window isn't slow as hell etc.). It has Office styles and preserves them if glass is disabled (that means you won't see Windows9x-ish window in Metro). Its interface (backstage, QAT) is more like Office 2010.

Maybe in some distant future, Microsoft will fix its Ribbon, but for now, look for alternatives.
