Now custom value handler receives as a second argument hash of options a...

...nd it is possible to set options.dontQuote inside that handler which will prevent quoting value returned from it.
For example:

class SqlDefault
squel.registerValueHandler SqlDefault, (val, options) ->
  options.dontQuote = true
  'DEFAULT'

There's a problem with this in that it may affect subsequent values which get formatted (since you're modifying the formatting options object directly and since objects are passed by-reference in JS). However I like the idea of passing further formatting options to the custom value handler so I'll leave those open - I'll probably incorporate this idea in the final fix.

Cool, so I am looking forward for it. Thanks.

When this is implemented it would be useful to expose format and escape functionality to the valueHandlers. This way you could for example create a valueHandler like this:

function myValueHandler(value, options, escape, format){
  options.dontQuote = true
  return 'CAST(' + format(value.toString()) + ') as MyType';
}
