if I wanted to make the 10+20 subexpression a proto

that?
proto::as_expr() is useful for this. Guess I should say that in the 
docs, somewhere.
I neglected to mention that if you're building a DSEL and you wish 
"as_expr" were called something else, you can do this:

     proto::functional::as_expr<> const constant = {};

     int main()
     {
         constant(10) + 20;
         return 0;
     }

All of Proto's free functions have function object equivalents in the 
proto::functional namespace.
