Comment:

 >  am wondering if there's another way to achieve this functionality.

 Only by looping over each of your terms and calling `get_objects_in_term(
 $term_id )` for each.

 I can imagine supporting something like `$args['format']` that lets you
 specify that you'd like the results returned as an array:

 {{{
 $objects = get_objects_in_term( array( 4, 5 ), 'my_taxonomy', array(
 'format' => 'array' ) );

 /*
 array(
     4 => array( 10, 22, 130 ),
     5 => array( 15, 31 ),
 ),
 */
 }}}
