There are two blackletter Vietnamese non-Unicode fonts available at
http://www.trichlor.org/fonts/winfonts.html#truetype in the archive
pdfott1.zip. The fonts are those named VI Que Anh and VI Que Anh Hoa.
In both cases the dot is placed below the descender on the y, but in
neither does it appear clumsily placed.
I would expect that in some fonts it might be possible and desireable to
place the dot within the loop of the y.
