Yes, I found that out. I'm planning in creating a full_grammar, which
would only match a full expression. This can be passed as a
compile-time assert to the expression evaluation.
And I want to create the looser grammar, composed of all
sub-expressions inside the full grammar somehow. Is there a way to do
this in proto, or should I start creating it with mpl?
Is there a way to iterate a grammar?
