Here I think the solution should be the same as for @if which luccily is already implemented.

No, in both cases, autovectorization should take care of this. The question is why these operators are not autovectorized.

This looks relevant:

julia> dump(:(a & b))
Expr
  head: Symbol call
  args: Array{Any}((3,))
    1: Symbol &
    2: Symbol a
    3: Symbol b

julia> dump(:(a && b))
Expr
  head: Symbol &&
  args: Array{Any}((2,))
    1: Symbol a
    2: Symbol b
