I suppose there's a project idea here: implement lisp macros for zsh.

That is, have some hook (maybe preexec or precmd?) get as argument
a list of tokens, and have it return an alternative list of tokens to be
executed further.

Then the && idea could be implemented as:

prefoo() {
  if (( $#reply )) && [[ $reply[1] == '&&' ]]; then
    reply=( ';' '()' '{' 'return' '$?' '}' $reply )
  fi
}
