For a list:-type field, I think you can only use IS_IN_SET(...,
multiple=True), IS_IN_DB(..., multiple=True), IS_NOT_EMPTY(), and
IS_LIST_OF(), no?
IS_LIST_OF() takes only a single additional validator, so to apply multiple
validators using it, you would probably have to create a custom validator
that applies multiple validators.
