You can execute arbitrary SQL via db.executesql(), but I don't think there is an easy way to add the collate expression to a standard DAL-generated query (you could generate a SQL string via the ._select() method and then manipulate it and ultimately pass it to db.executesql()).
Would it make more sense to define the collation behavior of the column directly in the SQLite schema so you don't have to worry about specifying it on a per-query basis (or do you sometimes want different collation behavior for this particular column)?
