As a European, no I don't. á isn't used in my language, but my layout offers it via a dead-key-then-base-letter mechanism, and it is correctly treated as one unit when pressing backspace, anything else would feel incorrect. It would be even worse if such a thing happened for the letters that my layout offers individual buttons for (ÅÄÖ). Some languages do treat these as letters with attached modifiers, but many, including mine, treat them as indivisible letters that just happen to look similar to some others for historical reasons, and to treat them as combinations of base letters and diacritics would be completely incorrect, even if you typed them in using the dead-key-then-base-letter mechanism for some reason.
