I concocted a shell script, it looks promising:

#!/bin/sh
#-
# Parallel mounting of ZFS filesystems leaves a chaotic listing of
# mounted filesystems when viewed by df(1).
# Separating the header from the remaining lines and sorting the
# latter before recombining is a viable solution.
#-

DF=/bin/df

${DF} ${_at_} | grep    ^Filesystem
${DF} ${_at_} | grep -v ^Filesystem | sort -k 6

# new-df.sh
