Try typing RET in the agenda. That calls org-agenda-switch-to, which
brings you to the relevant clock information in the agenda. (However, if
the information is tucked away in a LOGBOOK, it remains somewhat
inconveniently hidden from view).

I disagree that jumping to the SCHEDULED or DEADLINE lines from a normal
agenda is always nicer than jumping to the headline. I can easily change
planning info from within the agenda. But I cannot change the text of
the headline itself -- that is usually why I jump from the agenda. If
nothing else, we should have both options, which we seem to currently
have with the difference between TAB (org-agenda-goto) and RET
(org-agenda-switch-to). However, I am not sure how intentional this is,
as I can find nothing highlighting this difference in the documentation.
Best,
Matt
