Yes, for those cases a change on TOPPAGE in on A4 would need to select a programmed byte where the GRAPH / CHAR control bit changes as well as the PS1 or PS3 control bit. It would be quite a humdrum job to define it all, maybe generation of the device contents could be automated via a program written in Python or 'C' or something.
