i handle this two different ways:

1- I'll use a helper function to handle this

/lib/helpers/comments

def list_comments( object , offset=0 , limit=10 ):
     # stuff here to grab the comments
     # return fragment or populate c?  who knows

2- I'll use a shared inheritance class

def _list_comments( self , offset=0 , limit=10 ):
     # stuff here to grab the comments
     # return fragment or populate c?  who knows
     # self has a class var that tells what kind of object we're
looking at

i really dislike the idea of using a subquery:
- if your app is transaction safe, you just complicated stuff a lot
- if your app has any sort of auth or setup overhead on the request,
you're now running it again ( ie: BaseController's __init__ and
__before__ )
- you're having a controller's public method that also acts as
private.  methods should really be public or private.

i think helper functions and inherited classes are more appropriate.
