The order-by is less intuitive, however it would be useful for defining drop in overrides. Lets say I wanted to package my component into a JAR and override the default simply by including the JAR in WEB-INF/lib. Allowing me to specify in my JAR's components.xml file that my component should be used instead of the default would ease the installation of these modules. It's a convenience feature to be sure, but it allows users of this module to install it without any additional configuration.
In the end there is still a need to be able to control things at a top most level and this can be accomplished via overrides in the top most components.xml. So, I like being able to override by class attribute. I'd just also like to provide third-party component developers easy discovery, install and override of their components as well. Some order/priority attributed seemed to work well for that.
