Well you should always validate whatever you get from the users. In that
validation step you can do that.
A possible way to validate it would be to do something like:
ids, error = IS_LIST_OF(IS_INT_IN_RANGE(minimum=1),
maximum=YOUR_MAX_NUMBER_OF_IDS)(request.vars.ids.split(','))
if error:
# we didn't validate for some reason
response.flash = error
else:
people = db(db.auth_user.id.belongs(ids))...
Instead of using IS_INT_IN_RANGE you can even go a step further and use
IS_IN_DB, but that would be much more heavy as it would hit the database
and I don't think it's needed here due to the next step.
