Maybe
from django.core import input
a = request.GET.get('a', 0).as(input.int)
a_list = request.GET.get_list('a', 0).as(input.int)
And in
a = request.GET.get('a', 0)
or
a = request.GET['a']
'a' would act like a string with the evil stripped out(lazily) if used
for anything other than calling the method 'as' , ?
the result of get_list would act like a list of evil-stripped strings.
