With all the information I got in this community I've cooked up my own ROM. I decided to share it, maybe someone would like it.
I am no dev, so this isn't actually a true custom ROM.
What I've done:
I haven't done anything fancy, such as overclocking/undervolting, multitouch enablers etc. If you want those, you should use MS2Ginger from Walter79... Or you can install those options by yourself offcourse
If you'd like the stock Gingerbread ROM from Moto, but without the "social" capabilities, I've got this option for. I'm not exactly planning on supporting it too much (Gonna take a holiday and preparing for final year of study...)
However I might try to get rid of annoying bugs if they occur. The Euro key doesn't work by the way. I know that but I forget to fix it every time
As far as I can tell everything works fine on my UK Milestone 2.
Download:
If you're already on Rooted Gingerbread, you could only restore the system.img from the download.
By the way: even though it isn't necessary, I suggest a cache wipe from Motorola Recovery after you've installed the Nandroid. If you don't, the first boot might take a while and some compatibility issues might occur, as this ROM has Blur completely disabled.
Thanks to walter79, r2beta0, dangpzanco, Endless7 and everyone else who helped me cook this up
Btw: Everything you do is on own risk Have fun!

Note to FroYo users:
You can't simply install this Nandroid and expect your Milestone 2 to boot! It will not work that way.
If you're on FroYo you should do the following after wiping the dalvik cache(Step 7):
- Reboot into Bootloader mode
- Flash FixedSBF: http://www.multiupload.com/KL6LSHIRCS
- After this the phone will reboot automatically. First boot can take a long while if you didn't wipe data/cache.
