Dotless j has been proposed as a new character in the Latin Extended-B
range.
U+0237 LATIN SMALL LETTER DOTLESS J
http://www.unicode.org/alloc/Pipeline.html
Since it's not official yet, there probably aren't any fonts that
support it. It will be in Thryomanes 3.0 whenever I get time to finish
it, along with a couple of other proposed characters (the DB and QP
digraphs, which are useful for labiodental stops). But it's always
possible that some other character might be assigned to that code point.
