The Pixar documentation pointed to by the Omniverse documentation regarding the “Kind” property discusses the ability to extend the “Kind” registry.

I have been unable to find where to edit the Kind Registry in Omniverse. My search has lead me to:
-
omni.usd.libs>pxr>Kind>kind.pyd, which is a binary file, and I don’t think there is a means for me to edit it.
-
omni.usd.libs>pxr>Kind>init.pyi, which has definitions for the Classes: Registry and Tokens. This looks like a potential file to access the Kind definitions, but I think it is just a python wrapper pointing to the C++ compiled binary.
I would like to extend the base kinds to have unique Kinds in the hierarchy in Omniverse. Is this possible? If so, can anyone help point me in the right direction?
