FWIW, many instructions NVIDIA GPUs support modifiers on either or both parameters to an operation (esp the bitwise and arithmetic ops). Whether the modifier is supported depends on various oddness (e.g. whether the second arg is GPR vs const/imm20 vs imm32), so I doubt this would be particularly useful there. Furthermore, the nouveau compiler already has a modifier propagation pass which attempts to combine the NOT/NEG/SAT ops with uses that can consume them directly. It's unclear to me whether NIR should directly support all 16 boolean operations or not. I can see arguments both for and against. Just wanted to point out the NVIDIA situation since it was referenced explicitly.
