So you just go to "view > toolbars > menu bar" and the menu is back.
Also, most VI users I've worked with tend to use keyboard shortcuts,
and alt-a brings up the bookmarks bar, as before, in the same place.

Definitely agree - I can't stand the office ribbon, but IE9 doesn't have that.

I assume you mean http://eu.mio.com/en_gb/ - I can't find any problem with it.
The HTML and CSS specifications which IE now complies with have been
around since 2002 - if people are writing poor websites, that's
entirely the fault of the website not the browser.
There's no such things as "IE9 ready" - websites should be designed to
standards, not browsers.
