From supp-box.mkiv:

%D \macros
%D   {doiftextelse, doiftext}
%D
%D When \type {\doifelse} cum suis hopelessly fail, for
%D instance because we pass data, we can fall back on the next
%D macro:
%D
%D \starttyping
%D \doiftextelse {data} {then branch} {else branch}
%D \doiftext     {data} {then branch}
%D \stoptyping
