We have a customer who has their reception phone setup this way. They currently have 3 expansion modules, with all users configured in alphabetical order.

I can tell you doing it manually/by hand is definitely not the way to go, especially if you need to make a change in the middle! In our situation we use a server-side PHP script to generate the auto-provisioning configuration automatically. If you don't have an auto provisioning server setup, you could still use the same type of approach to at least generate the config instead of having to enter it all manually through the web interface.

For example if you have all the names/extension numbers in an Excel file, you could export it to CSV and make a simple PHP script that would read all the values, sort them alphabetically and export the appropriate configuration lines...

If you have access to a webserver that you can upload PHP files to and are interested in this approach, let me know I could probably be persuaded to whip up something quickly for you ;o)
