Thanks. That's pretty much exactly my workaround now. So I enter data
all over the place in my file, so as to preserve position with respect
to headings (so my clock table is correct). Therefore the only way to
get the journal-style output seems to be as you suggest.

The problem is, at the end of the week, when I want to output a report
of what I did, it's a fairly manual task. It's true that even with a
chronological report I wouldn't necessarily leave the chronological
output as-is, with no editing or grouping. But it will be *much*
easier to get what I want if I can start with a simple linear-time
report of everything, than if I have to work my way through the weekly
agenda in follow mode.
