It doesn't seem to on QR plated tickets. My friend who is currently on a DONE6 ex-HND had only $144 in YR, he has 5 JL coded segments and 9 QR coded segments, so it seems the ex-Japan tickets are still attracting minimal YQ/YR.

As a separate question, if you are in transit and have bags that have been through-checked onto the next flight, is it OK to leave the airport (provided visas etc are OK) if you have a long transit time (or will this result in your bags being taken off the flight)?
One thing you can't do is leave your hand baggage in the storage in the lounge. Or if you do it, then you have to keep it quiet and don't leave the lounge right away. But I have also left the airport when I had checked luggage in transit.
