I have two tables, a ticket table and a notes table, set up where each ticket can have multiple notes. I'm trying to come up with a query that returns the ticket fields as well as a field that is an array type field with the values being json-encoded note records. I've come up with the following subselect query, which works:

SELECT
...
(SELECT 
array_agg(to_json(row(notedate,username,note))) 
FROM sabrenotes 
INNER JOIN users ON author=users.id 
WHERE ticket=sabretickets.id ) notes
FROM tickets
WHERE ...

The only problem with this query is that the notes aren't sorted. Of course, simply adding an ORDER BY clause to the sub-select doesn't work - it throws an error about needing to use notedate in a GROUP BY clause or aggregate function. Is there some way I can get sorting as well here? Of course, I could just run a second query to get the notes, and combine in code, but that's no fun... :-)
