I recently found that it is less than clear how numbers should be quoted/escaped

For the wikibase client components, we need unit tests for components that

I can't speak for all databases, but I know MySQL fairly well, and it will
generally be safe there.
You will be able to find some edge cases where it may not give you what you
expected. For example
select 0x10 + 1;
is not the same as
select '0x10' + 1;
The first will give 17, the second 1 as the
MySQL very happily handles quoted numbers (with the exception of LIMIT
values), but iirc the SQL standard says numeric types shouldn't be
quoted. I think db2 will return an error if you quote a number, for
example. So to keep the db-specific code to a minimum, we may want to
update that.
