Thanks! I took a stab at it using @compiles and came up with this:
@compiles(CreateTable, 'postgresql')
def compile_unlogged(create, compiler, **kwargs):
if unittests and 'UNLOGGED' not in create.element._prefixes:
create.element._prefixes.append('UNLOGGED')
return compiler.visit_create_table(create)
This subsection of the compiler docs was helpful:
