David, thanks. It was a bad example on my part. Could just as well have been: (26194, 189, 2345).

No, you are not ordering by documents.id, you are ordering by an expression into which you are passing the documents.id
valueas one of its components. 

When you use ORDER BY and DISTINCT together you basically are short-handing:

SELECT sq.*
FROM (SELECT DISTINCT ...) AS sq
ORDER BY sq.?

If you want to order by something you have to include it exactly in the select-list of the inner/distinct query.

In this example, though, you could just "ORDER BY documents.id DESC"...
