-The ability to /compose/ different EDSLs is one of their most exciting features. Consider how you build a parser using yacc. You write your grammar rules in yacc's domain-specific language. Then you embed semantic actions written in C within your grammar. Boost's Spirit parser generator gives you the same ability. You write grammar rules using Spirit.Qi and embed semantic actions using the Phoenix library. Phoenix and Spirit are both Proto-based domain-specific languages with their own distinct syntax and semantics. But you can freely embed Phoenix expressions within Spirit expressions. This section describes Proto's /sub-domain/ feature that lets you define famalies of interoperable domains.

-When there are multiple domains in play within a given expression, Proto uses some rules to figure out which domain "wins". The rules are loosly modeled on the rules for C++ inheritance. `Phoenix_domain` is a sub-domain of `spirit_domain`. You can liken that to a derived/base relationship that gives Phoenix expressions a kind of implicit conversion to Spirit expressions. And since Phoenix expressions can be "converted" to Spirit expressions, they can be freely combined with Spirit expressions and the result is a Spirit expression.

-In light of the above discussion about sub-domains, one could think of `proto::default_domain` as a sub-domain of /every other domain/. Expressions in the default domain have a kind of implicit conversion to every other domain type. That's exactly how Proto sees it! What's more, you can define your domain to be a sub-domain of the default domain. In so doing, you give expression in your domain conversions to expressions in every other domain. This is like a "free love" domain, because it will freely mix with all other domains.

-Let's think again about the Phoenix EDSL. Since it provides generally useful lambda functionionality, it's reasonable to assume that lots of other EDSLs besides Spirit might want the ability to embed Phoenix expressions. In other words, `phoenix_domain` should be a sub-domain of `proto::default_domain`, not `spirit_domain`:
