Not sure if it would help or not, but you can use pg_get_expr(adbin,
adrelid) against pg_attrdef to get the default for a column. That would
let you dynamically insert the expression that generates the default
value into the VALUES clause.
start psql with the -E option and do \d on a table with e default to see
this in action.
