I think you should tinker some more and move over to the RepRap gcode flavour.
Yes, i see, UltiGCode is out of date and soon.... out of use.
Since we are at it...
Is there a (quick) reference anywhere with all possible {placeholders} that can be used in start- and end-gcode?
Or more specific: Is it possible to insert the printing temperatures from the current Cura project there? Sometimes a specific heatup sequence is crucial...

UltiGcode was designed back in the days when you would set one temperature for the whole print. The idea was that you choose your material on the printer (where you just installed the new filament) and then the printer would control the bed temperature and nozzle temperature for you. If Cura inserts temperature commands then the preferences you set in your firmware are overwritten, which means that some user settings are ignored.
Since you you have a dual extrusion UM2, you already are a tinkerer, so I think you should tinker some more and move over to the RepRap gcode flavour. If I recall correctly then the UM2 firmware defaults to RepRap behaviour when the Ultigcode header is not present. You will then have the full benefits of temperature controls in Cura again.
