FabianFred has started a map called "OJ". Scroll down the main page a little to look for his thread.
Here is the link to it... viewtopic.php?t=5606
I don't think the Marianas islands are included though. It's just Okinawa/Japan/some of Korea.
You have a good idea to have the B-29 bases though. Maybe you could suggest to him to cut and paste the islands onto his map. In my opinion, I think it would be OK to have the bases as close as possible to Japan. The distance would be fictitious but you wouldn't have to fly for hours at a time over the ocean either.
Many of the IL2 maps are not totally accurate and have made bases closer to each other than in real life to help playability. You have a great idea.
I also think that he wouldn't mind if someone else took over the work on his OJ map. If you have any map making skills or know of someone else who might want to do it then you could add the islands too.
