That seems really complicated for every use case I can imagine. Why not
just look for `.dir-locals*.el' and sort lexicographically? That
degrades gracefully to the current state of things.

Otherwise you're building an ELisp facility to load files to augment
ELisp options, and you may as well just use ELisp.
