I wonder where this is documented :-(

If you make sure that the shell passes the quotes to the command, you
can actually do it:

snmpwalk $host  <OID of table>.1.<column>.\"ABCDE\"

If the index is an IMPLIED string (one without a length prefix) you must
use single quotes in stead of double quotes.

See the -OE option to snmpcmd(1)
