\removeWithTag perfectly well removes all expressions tagged with
#'correct from d'4 and that's all you ask it to do.  Note that if you
write

\removeWithTag #'current d'4 -\tag #'current ^\markup "Hi"

then the tagged superscript still makes it into the expression that
\removeWithTag oversees.  But for the use you want, you'll have to write
\removeWithTag #'correct { ... }
namely put the whole expression in braces.
