It didn't occur to me this morning, but you can define them locally via the
custom operator hooks:

http://search.cpan.org/~ribasushi/SQL-Abstract-1.58/lib/SQL/Abstract.pm#SPECIAL_OPERATORS
http://search.cpan.org/~ribasushi/SQL-Abstract-1.58/lib/SQL/Abstract.pm#UNARY_OPERATORS

SQLA 1.5 does not have a sane databse aware api, and focuses on ansi sql
at this point. Thus my reluctance to include this into the core of the module.

Dissenting thoughts of course are welcome :)
