For the record, the Z-SAMPA has [y\ D_a\] for these (the latter is just an
"alveolar" diacritic). [q\ D\] are voiceless uvular lateral fricativ &
voiced palatal sibilant. I'd say your proposition on the latter makes more
sense, but I'm not convinced about the former either way.

OI for IPA sounds agreeable. I don't feel like checking what canIPA uses,
but most likely something like "turned small delta with angled upper right
corner" and "reverse smallcaps R with curly serifs".
