Follow-up Comment #1:

Yes, this needs fixing.  It looks like robotic editing operations tripped over
the inconsistent naming of the grave accent with respect to most other accent
special character names.

If I ever get a time machine I'll go back and lobby James and/or Werner to
name the grave accent `ag` and the hook accent `ak` (or maybe `a,`).

Thanks for the report.
