Ah, I didn't think of that. Sorry. I had been manually moving my drawers back to
the top of the entry since I noticed them moving. Adding the note after the
CLOCK drawer when the drawer is not at the start of the entry is completely
wrong; the note insertion code should only skip drawers if they are immediately
after the scheduling keywords. 

I'll work on a patch which will fix this.

I'm not so much concerned with the drawers being at the top of the entry as
their being in a well-defined place in it. Org inserts them at the start of the
entry, so I'm used to them being there, and as I have
`org-cycle-include-plain-lists' set, it prevents them from being hidden. 

Isn't it inconvenient having the clock drawer somewhere in the middle of an
entry, for example if you want to adjust clock times?
