Now I've implemented stages and indeed output of puppet agent makes me think 
they are in place:

notice: /Firewall[002 allow icmp on eth0]/ensure: created
notice: /Firewall[001 allow packets with valid state]/ensure: created
notice: /Firewall[000 allow lo in]/ensure: created
notice: /Firewall[003 allow ssh]/ensure: created
notice: /File[/etc/sysconfig/iptables]/ensure: created
notice: /Firewall[100 allow nrpe]/ensure: created
notice: /Firewall[100 allow snmp]/ensure: created
notice: /Firewall[999 reject everything else on forward]/ensure: created
notice: /Firewall[998 reject everything else]/ensure: created

But then I lose ssh connection. Looking at local console it is obvious why:

Chain INPUT (policy ACCEPT)
/* 998 reject everything else */ 
/* 100 allow nrpe */
/* 100 allow snmp */
/* 003 allow ssh */
/* 000 allow lo in */
/* 001 allow icmp on eth0 */
/* 002 allow packets with valid state */ 

Chain FORWARD (policy ACCEPT)
/* 999 reject everything else on forward */ reject-with icmp-admin-prohibited

So again it looks like number in the rule name have no meaning whatsoever. 
Rules are inserted according to stages, but without rule position (iptables -I 
chain rulenum) so each one ends on top, since for iptables rulenum parameter is 
optional and set to 1 (=top of the table) if not specified.
