Ok, so (this is all untested, so you may have to tweak0 create a script
/usr/bin/startunprivlxc which does

#!/bin/sh
cgm movepid all $1
sudo -u $2 -- lxc-start -P $2 -n $3 -d

then create yourself a new upstart job which does

description "start unpriv containers"

start on started lxc

script
        USERS="user1 user2 user3"

        for u in $USERS; do
                cgm create all lxc$u
                cgm chown all lxc$u $(id -u $u) $(id -g $u)
                lxc-autostart -L -P /home/$u/.local/share/lxc | while read 
line; do
                        set -- $line
                        /usr/bin/startunprivlxc lxc$u $u $1
                        sleep $2
                done
        done
end script
