Thanks a lot @nicolad for working on this. The native order improves things a lot.

Noticed a couple things that should be addressed:

1
Safari doesn't expose styled lists as lists to assistive technologies. This is a known Safari "feature", which requires to add a redundant role="list" to the <ul> element. As a consequence, the related ESLint rule needs to be disabled with an explanatory comment. See for example:

/*
* Disable reason: The `list` ARIA role is redundant but
* Safari+VoiceOver won't announce the list otherwise.
*/
/* eslint-disable jsx-a11y/no-redundant-roles */
<ul className="editor-block-navigation__list block-editor-block-navigation__list" role="list">

2
<li> elements inherit margin-bottom: 6px; from WordPress, this should be reset to not introduce visual changes

Lastly, I've noticed some shortcuts miss the aria-label, which is meant to make the various shortcuts be announced in a more "human friendly" way. This is a pre-existing problem though, will create a separate issue.
