You can order by fields:
db(...).select(orderby=db.test.field)
Check the web2py manual section about orderby:

You are right this is the fastest way available:
[db.test[id] for id in test_ids]
GAE has added batch get/put/delete operations that could be
implemented.

I think the tools.fetch() was released right before GAE supported
urllib, so urllib was not available when fetch was created.
