As a minor recommendation, I suggest that you follow Catalan,
Occitan referencial, and old Italian orthography by using a-grave
instead of a-acute. That allows a very simple rule: all open stressed
vowels get the grave, all close stressed vowels get the
acute. (A is always open, i and u are always close, e and
o can be either.)
