What feature do you need? https://docs.github.com/en/actions/learn-github-actions/expressions#operators
It would be nice if you could construct more complex expressions using operators with the type-safe expr API.
One way would be to model them as explicit functions like expr { and(always(), success()) } to get ${{ always() && success() }}.
An even nicer way would of course be if operator overloading is used, so that you can actually do expr { always() && success() }} instead.
Those ways also need to support some way of textual input to support not yet supported contexts like step outcome, or matrix values.
One nice thing about this is that it could allow for better checks beyond the expression itself.
For example when using job.result, it could runtime check that the job A whose job B is using the result is declared in the needs of job B.
Runtime check here is better than GitHub's post-commit runtime check, and almost as good as a compile-time check (I guess we can say the Kotlin script Workflow compiles to YAML in a way).

Do you have an example usage?
Is there a workaround for not having this feature? If yes, please describe it.
Work-around is to not use the type-safe API, but simple strings.
