Hi Tom,

A feature of org-mode I have started to use a lot is the clock, to record the amount of time I spend on different tasks. I'll start a clock in the task or subtask I'm working on, and then clock out and add a note when I move to a
differnt task.

The result is often something like this:
----------------------------------------------------------------------- ----
* Tasks
** Task 1
*** Sub-task Foo
    CLOCK: [2007-09-28 Fri 11:52]--[2007-09-28 Fri 12:53] =>  1:01
    - Finally cracked the Foo problem
      CLOCK: [2007-09-28 Fri 10:50]--[2007-09-28 Fri 11:50] =>  1:00
    - Dealing with problems continuing Foo-ing
      CLOCK: [2007-09-28 Fri 09:50]--[2007-09-28 Fri 10:50] =>  1:00
    - A good start to Foo

This is some information that I don't want to forget about doing Foo. ----------------------------------------------------------------------- ----

As you can see, the clock notes track my activity within a subtask, but the
indentation seems odd,

I cannot reproduce the indentation you are getting - are you re-indenting the lines
with TAB or so?

and the useful information about the subtask is in
danger of being swamped by a mass of reverse-ordered progress logs.

Actually, I have been bothered by that too.  Maybe we should have
a special CLOCK drawer and make all those entries go in there....
