No, fragment applies only to lexer rules (with an initial
capital); it makes them non-toplevel rules. To put it another
way, every lexer rule that does *not* use fragment is a candidate
output token. (And in general, a non-fragment lexer rule should
not call another non-fragment lexer rule, as that suggests
ambiguity.)
