David,
I retract my statement #2, below. It is wrong. You are indeed correct in
the assertion that the accelerations of the two electrons are equal and
opposite - as measured in their CM frame. This fact, however does NOT make
the CM frame an inertial frame.

It does if the CM frame is initially inertial, which it is by definition, in
this case.
