I want to prefer 5 GHz access points over 2.4 GHz access points in an 
environment where both types are available with the same SSID, because 
the load on the 5 GHz cells is much lower and they also support HT40. Is 
there a way to reach this without forcing the client to connect to one 
specific access point and as a result losing roaming capability?

Sounds like supplicant heuristics you can work on.
