Hi !

I've been looking into the documentation but could not find it.
What is the proper way to insert a DEFAULT keywork in the tuples of the 
VALUES clause in an INSERT statement ? As in

CREATE TABLE number (
    i INTEGER,
    letters STRING,
    roman STRING DEFAULT '',
) ;

INSERT INTO number (c1, c2, c3) VALUES (1, 'one', 'I'), (1000000, 'one 
million', DEFAULT) ; -- NOTE THE DEFAULT HERE

(yes this example is silly)

The best I came up with, is using the `literal_column('DEFAULT', type_=...)` 
construct.

I wondered if there is a better way, cause I was worried about the keyword 
possibly getting quoted at some point, though I am not 100% sure that could 
happen.

Thanks in advance !

Regards,
Nicolas.
