I would make a function that automatically generated case statements for 
the orderby

def make_orderby(idlist):
    result="CASE"
    for i, el in enumerate(idlist):
        result += " WHEN id = %d THEN '%d' " % (el, i)
    result += " ELSE id END ASC"
    return result  




I have not tested this...
