maybe

try:
   theint = int(form.vars.role)
except ValueError:
  ...not an int

BTW: what does it mean "is_int_in_range may allow out of range integers" ? 
if it's an integer, it's an integer. if you need min and max values for 
some application/business logic, pass minimum and maximum parameters to 
is_int_in_range....
