In fact what happens is that any CLOCK below another one that has a note is
indented more than the CLOCK above it:

Eg (from a real org-mode file this time)

  CLOCK: [2007-10-03 qua 14:36]--[2007-10-03 qua 14:40] =>  0:04
  - Updating wiki about mlc.
    CLOCK: [2007-10-03 qua 13:28]--[2007-10-03 qua 14:36] =>  1:08
  - Debugging mlc.
    CLOCK: [2007-10-03 qua 11:46]--[2007-10-03 qua 12:10] =>  0:24

This also means that any body text underneath the clocks will be indented
differently depending on whether there are notes to the clocks.

Yes, that would make sense. I thought about it but then decided I didn't like
the idea of having drawers for all the subtasks - as if that would be noisier
than having lots of CLOCK entries in all the subtasks!

I'll try tweaking the clock-out function to put completed clocks into a drawer,
and see how I like it.
