ifrelax#1relax would be true if the expansion of #1 results in something that starts with any non-character. ifrelaxhboxabcrelax for example would test as true (and typeset abc).
this uses ifx tests which do not expand the tested tokens.

Here's an implementation according to your idea: the first argument is tested if blank, if it is the following macro is called with 0 argument; similarly the second argument is tested. Then we do a string case choice.

If the arguments are only allowed to be blank or numeric, you can use an ifnum comparison.
