Thank you very much, that's great!  I had no idea, because …

* the documentation of org-clock-goto and org-clock-in (which display 
the history given universal-argument) didn't refer to this,

* org-clock-select-task does not obviously refer to 
org-clock-history-length,

* I was misled by the hard-coded 10 in org-clock-select-task, which, as 
I now understand, defines the boundary between digits and letters to 
number tasks.

I think you are right about this, given the initial code in 
org-clock-history-push, and the limit to 9 digits (why actually not use 
"0" for the most recent one?) and 26 alphabetic letters.

Cheers,

Christoph
