Ok, so activity on this thread has died down. I'm not sure if that's consensus or exhaustion.

Are we good with:
- implementing basic \if EXPR \elseif EXPR \else \endif, where the EXPR is an expression but is currently limited to a simple string that will be evaluated for truth via ParseVariableBool()?
- moving beyond trivial expressions in a later commit?
- leaving loops out for now?
