Not directly answering your point, but trying to make your point more
accurate...

What's the info available about your past appointments?  I'm a bit puzzled
about what I have to do with old appointments. Let me explain...

I have such appointments:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
** Dentist
   <2010-07-28 Wed 10:45-11:15>

** Meeting client ABC
   <2010-08-19 Thu 10:00-12:00>
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

OK. We're on 1st of August. What do I do with the first entry (dentist)?

- leave it like it is?
- change the angle brackets by [] (to explictly make it inactive)?
- remove it?

Is it the type of information you have about your past entries?  Active or
inactive timestamps?

Would we do the full "right clocking behavior", we should have clocked in and
out such entries. So, the right info would be in LOGBOOK.

Do you have such info as well about your past entries?

What is the right behavior?  I guess the last one...

Best regards,
  Seb
