If I want to get the most out of UEFI, should the kernel and other critical OS components be in EFI application format, or can they be just a binaries?

Typical solution is to have a loader EFI app that sets everything up for the kernel, then calls ExitBootServices() and runs the kernel. That way, the kernel can be in whatever format you should choose.
