I believe \orelse might be what you want. It works with most \if... macros,
and it avoids nesting of \doifelse constructs. Here's an example, which I
use in conditionally removing preceding punctuation if any other keys are
defined before a specific one in an assignment:

```
      % If any of the preceding keys was specified, then replace any
preceding punctuation with a space
      % and typeset the number with its CSL abbreviation, followed by a
comma
      \ifdefined\btxsbllocvol
        \removeunwantedspaces\removepunctuation\btxspace
      \orelse\ifdefined\btxsbllocno
        \removeunwantedspaces\removepunctuation\btxspace
      \fi
