That's exactly the kind of thing I *don't* want to do. If you
absolutely must have that and you can't wait until we get a full-blown
expression evaluator, then just swap the \if side with the \else side
and call it good. The whole point here is to avoid introducing weird
hacks for lack of a full expression evaluator that will just become
annoyances once we have one.
