You'll probably need to reorder the factor, then jitter it, and then add custom labels with scale_continuous(). I think I see how to resolve this problem in general (two displays of the same jittered data), but it requires basically a complete rewrite of ggplot2, so it's unlikely to appear before ggplot3.
