A while back, I proposed tal:condition-group, which is much more 
powerful and well-defined than "else", but harder to understand.  Your 
example would be written:

<tag tal:condition-group="blah">
   <tag tal:condition="blah here/someexpensivetest">
     something
   </tag>
   <tag tal:condition="blah default">
     something else
   </tag>
</tag>

It extends to multi-way tests, and has several subtle features.  See:
