that was the intention when i wrote it in debian (ubuntu at some point

not convinced that a start order does actually matter (because your 
stuff within containers should a) be graceful wrt/ to existence of other 
services by other containers and b) be eventful), however, better and 
simpler imho is to support using numbered prefixes.

/etc/lxc/auto/0001-foo
/etc/lxc/auto/0002-bar
