• If the task clock is activated on a TODO in the agenda,
• and closed quickly enough that the elapsed time is 0:00,
• then MOMENTARILY the agenda shows the CURRENT WALLCLOCK TIME.
• The actual logbook entry shows the correct 0:00 elapsed task time.
• And when the agenda is merely REFRESHED the wallclock time is replaced with the 0:00.

No, no, not clock check mode.

- I created a TODO with a scheduled time that repeats.  When completed 
it remains alive to be scheduled the next day.

- I started the clock on that TODO task.

- Then completed the task with 't' in the Agenda view.

- The task's "clock time" shows in the log ... i.e. how much time I 
spent completing that task.

Ok. Got it.

I looked into the code, and I do have a feeling that it is brittle
(agenda is a very old and convoluted code), but without a concrete
reproducer I wouldn't dare to touch it.

I hope the screen captured images came across in the previous email?  
They should help explain.

I indeed did not notice the attachments - they were not indicated in the
plain/text part of the email. They indeed did help to explain things.
