Answer 1

The padding is hard coded in the control template. Looks like the template on MSDN is already updated (Padding="{TemplateBinding Padding}"), but the default one used in VS isn't. As always when making changes to control templates, it takes a lot of XAML redefining everything.
Altered to your specific case

Note that the ControlTemplate for ValidationTooltip is needed as per MSDN
The default ControlTemplate for ListBox and ListBoxItem references the
ControlTemplate for ValidationTooltip. The following XAML shows the
ControlTemplate for ValidationTooltip that you must specify when you
work with the ListBox or ListBoxItem control templates.
