I thought this is on purpose to be simpler for kids or something because that's how you draw the letter with pencil (first a then ´).
Please note that this is also not real dead keys and causes other issues because there are in fact two characters stored with this method. You really have a and ´ stored as separate characters and the accent character is from some special unicode range which says to overwrite previously printed character. This causes problem e.g. with Speak activity since it cannot speak accented characters properly because they are not stored as such even if it visually looks so. I was localizing Speak to Czech for my son and have to remap dead keys to the usual non-reverse way to have Speak talk in Czech properly.
