I've never had issues getting D on SYD-NRT. If you can't find a D seat on QF21, try JL772.
Are you wanting to stop in SAN, or is that to try a 787?
You could try
CX: LHR-HKG
QF: HKG-SYD
JL: SYD-NRT
AA: NRT-DFW or JL: NRT-ORD or BOS (if wanting 787)
AA: DFW-MEX (or from JL ORD-MEX or BOS-DFW-MEX)
BA: MEX-LHR
There seems to be some wider issue with QF availability - as I had looked at something like your option, but no QF availability on HKG-SYD either.
I checked using ITA Matrix and there is only J availability in the whole month of August.
Not worried either way about the 787 - particularly after the latest fire at LHR!
