Ternary expessions in inline expressions?

[howesteve]

Hello,

Aren't js ternary expressions allowed in inline expressions?
This:
=(this.date? this.date:'(no date')

Renders this:

Dataview (inline field '(this.date? this.date:'(no date')'): Error: 
-- PARSING FAILED --------------------------------------------------

> 1 | (this.date? this.date:'(no date')
    |           ^

Expected one of the following: 

'(', ')', '*' or '/' or '%', '+' or '-', '.', '>=' or '<=' or '!=' or '=' or '>' or '<', '[', 'and' or 'or', /[0-9\p{Letter}_-]/u, text

Seems too basic of a feature to be missing, so I imagine I'm doing something wrong?
