The keyboard has a key for the period, with the question mark above it. You swipe down for the question mark. It seems this should be reversed as you use the question mark more often, while double spacing to get a period Instead of actually using the key to get a period.
The same applies for the comma/exclamation point.

You already know that these are user forums and that you're not talking to Apple on here. If you want to leave feedback to Apple about it (it's probably unlikely to change, except possibly as an option, and probably for the majority of people the question mark is not used more often than a full stop ; not everyone has double-tapping spacebar enabled as it will obvious not affect the ability to type a double-space) : http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipad.html
