Provides the method from_related_ids, which lets you select some objects by providing a list of related ids (The huge difference to __in is that the objects have to match al of the ids, not only one)

Model Example::

class Article(models.Model):
    text = models.TextField()
    tags = ManyToManyField('Tag')
    objects = AllInManager()

Usage::

Article.objects.from_related_ids((1,2,3,4), 'tags')

There is a huge difference.

tags__in=(1,2,3,4) matches all Articles which tags are 1,2,3 or 4 (If one Article has more than one tag it is okay but not a requirement).

from_related_ids((1,2,3,4),'tags') only matches Articles which are assigned to 1 and 2 and 3 and 4.
