Maybe it would be better if the "glue" were to appear outside of the 
double quotes.  Eg (though I haven't thought the implications of this 
particular syntax through):

	+"&& reload_completed"

The plus sign would indicate that the two sets of conditions should be 
concatenated together.  It would also enable other terms in the 
concatenation, eg +"|| some_other_constraint".

Doing it this way would avoid the need to try and parse part of the 
contents of the condition string -- which strikes me as error-prone.
