Exporting is always done in the order presented in the filmstrip. But that doesn't really matter, since what you really need is a filenaming scheme that orders things the way you want (I assume).
I've never been happier since adopting a filenaming scheme that assures alphabetical == chronological, basically:
{date}{photographer's-initials}{time}{camera's-initials}{image-number}.{ext}
Thus chronlogical by date, then grouped by photographer, then by time (to the second), distinguished by camera code and image number (ensures subsecond uniqueness, as well as indicating camera used, and original image number on card).
Exported files are generally named the same as source files, sometimes with some other {note} appended...
