It seems that this problem is solved in Windows 10 RS3 using simplewall 2.0.18 and the latest version of Windows Store (11708.1001.30.0) : it is possible to update Metro apps while Windows Defender Firewall is off (somehow, @henrypp found a way to disable the Windows firewall without disabling its service)
