    </Window.Resources>
    <Window.CommandBindings>
        <CommandBinding Command="{StaticResource ChangeAlignmentCommand}" CanExecute="CommandBinding_CanExecute"/>
    </Window.CommandBindings>
    <ribbon:Ribbon>
        <ribbon:Tab>
            <ribbon:Group>
                <ribbon:PopupButton Label="{Binding RelativeSource={RelativeSource Self}, Path=IsEnabled}">
                    <ribbon:Menu>
                        <ribbon:Button Command="{StaticResource ChangeAlignmentCommand}" CommandParameter="Left" Label="Left"/>
                        <!--<ribbon:Separator/>-->
                        <ribbon:Button Command="{StaticResource ChangeAlignmentCommand}" CommandParameter="Top" Label="Top"/>
                    </ribbon:Menu>
                </ribbon:PopupButton>
            </ribbon:Group>
        </ribbon:Tab>
    </ribbon:Ribbon>
</Window>

  private void CommandBinding_CanExecute(object sender, CanExecuteRoutedEventArgs e)
  {
    e.CanExecute = false;
  }
If you run the above window as given the PopupButton is disabled as expected; all child buttons cannot execute so the parent should not be enabled.
However, uncomment the Separator and the PopupButton becomes enabled. This is _always_ true, regardless of the state of any children and incorrect.
