Sorry,

I think I'd chipped in here at one point, the idea is for routine
"timecards" a simple list of hours aggregated by date would be useful.

I could see aggregate hours for task by ALL dates unless otherwise
specified.

* Timecard

** Customer X
   CLOCK: [2009-09-01 Thu 09:00]--[2009-09-01 Thu 12:00] =>  3:00
   CLOCK: [2009-09-02 Thu 09:00]--[2009-09-02 Thu 12:00] =>  3:00
   CLOCK: [2009-09-03 Thu 09:00]--[2009-09-03 Thu 12:00] =>  3:00
   CLOCK: [2009-09-04 Thu 09:00]--[2009-09-04 Thu 12:00] =>  3:00
   CLOCK: [2009-09-05 Thu 09:00]--[2009-09-05 Thu 12:00] =>  3:00
   CLOCK: [2009-09-01 Thu 12:00]--[2009-09-01 Thu 17:00] =>  5:00
   CLOCK: [2009-09-02 Thu 12:00]--[2009-09-02 Thu 17:00] =>  5:00
   CLOCK: [2009-09-03 Thu 12:00]--[2009-09-03 Thu 17:00] =>  5:00
   CLOCK: [2009-09-04 Thu 12:00]--[2009-09-04 Thu 17:00] =>  5:00
   CLOCK: [2009-09-05 Thu 12:00]--[2009-09-05 Thu 17:00] =>  5:00

I would anticipate that it may be optional to sort by date or by task
(if you include sublevels), though I have mixed feelings about adding
subtotal lines between aggregates.

Comments?

FYI, I'm learning LISP as we speak! Perhaps I can start customizing
things soon!
