It is assumed that the kinds of special display markups used for exporting to various formats are not sharable between formats, and that at most one kind may be active at a time. Since the display system does not distinguish kinds in this way we must contrive them.

This is done by making each kind indicator a macro (<kindtag>) that either disqualifies the marked display spec by expanding to the (DontUse) attribute, or else does qualify the dform spec by not so expanding.

So selecting a kind of 201 display method requires altering the macros all the competing 201 kinds and rechecking all the 201 display form objects.
