I would like to get the rows, where a column has the default value,
similar to:

select id fromt tbl where col = default

Is there a chance?

It isn't pretty, and not all that practical, but for example:

8<--------------------
create table def(id int, f1 text not null default 'foo');

insert into def values(1,'hello'),(2,default),(3,default),(4,'bar');


SELECT *
FROM def
WHERE $$'$$ || f1 || $$'::text$$ =
 (SELECT pg_get_expr(d.adbin, d.adrelid, true)
  FROM pg_attrdef d
  JOIN pg_attribute a on d.adrelid = a.attrelid
   AND d.adnum = a.attnum
  WHERE a.attrelid = 'def'::regclass
  AND a.attname = 'f1');
 id | f1
----+-----
  2 | foo
  3 | foo
(2 rows)
8<--------------------

Hope this helps,

Joe
