You might also want to consider the Wait Until Keyword Succeeds (see
Builtin Library) to handle this.  That would give you time-based control
over how long to wait and how often to re-check, which could be more
feasible for what you are testing.

Also, the 'and' and 'or' support comes from the Evaluate keyword, which
simply uses the Python/Jython eval() function.  So, the support for those
conjunctions comes from Python, not RF.
