With the current language possibilities, I see nothing possible.
Although I wouldn't have come with the idea to use this macro/set nested
to have a kind of if statement in macro.
I can see a possibility of language evolution that would allow a line
oriented @ifclear/@ifset and @set. Indeed, for @ifhtml/@html, for
similar reasons, we have added the @inlinefmt and @inlineraw @-commands.
We could imagine adding a @inlineset, @inlineclear, and @inlineifset,
@inlineifclear, or an @inlineif{condition, use if set, use if not set}.
