If the acute accent is deleted, then it becomes a plain 'e', which is
perfectly legal. However, if the 'e' is deleted, then several things
could happen: If that character was at the beginning of the string,
then the string becomes malformed (i.e. there is nothing for the
combining accent to combine with). On the other hand, if there is
another character before the deleted 'e', then the accent will be
applied to that character.
