 I would forbid /ii, uu/, but if you were set on allowing them, then things could be kept in order by a rule that requires every phonological string to be parsable as a CV sequence, which would rule out /cia/.

It would have been better to not allow them from the start, disallowing them now would be a lot of work. 

We could still salvage both the CV rule and /cia/ if the buffer vowel is allowed between consonant and glide. 
 
And then <a'ua> could be an orthographic variant of <a'uua>, <cia> of <ciia>.

I doubt the isomorphicists would be very happy with two words written together like that. It would also be somewhat inconsistent that we can't write ".iia" as ".ia", unless ".ia" must be interpreted as ".iia" and "ia" can't be written with a dot in front. But then that would interfere with dotside and names like ".iakob."...
