I have not looked up which way it is now,
but thinking again it seems to me that this would be the right way:

C-c C-x C-j jumps to the entry in the org buffer, both from the agenda
and from normal buffers.

"J" would then be available to find the clock entry in the agenda, if
it is present there.  We could extend this command to show the clock
entry in the other window if the line cannot be found in the agenda
window...

In general, he best way to do user keys is to bind them in the
mode hook of the mode you need them for, in this
case org-agenda-mode-hook.

I think doing the hook think is good enough for this case.
The speed key implementation is different.
