I refined the patch. it constructs a list of values with one NULL, but I don't see how to construct an idList with just the primary key.

also added the grammar rule to recognize both:
insert into <table> default values;
insert into <table> () values ();

anybody completing/correcting the work?
sqlite> insert into test () values ();
SQL error: table test has 3 columns but 1 values were supplied

MF.
