Just a thought, but don't we already have this with the "smart match"
operator?
if $x =~ (1, 2) { ... }
Or would & and | be a bit more strict in use, and thus easier for the
compiler to optimize? For instance, would we be able to:
if $x == 1 | "hello" { ... }
or would both operands have to be of the same type?
