Thinking a bit more about this, I would imagine a "tag"-like format would even
be more aligned with the rest, moreover if we could get a filtering function
(thus, based on tags):

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
* My sub-project
  :LOGBOOK:
  CLOCK: [2010-06-14 Mon 09:15]--[2010-06-14 Mon 10:10] =>  0:55  :svauban:
  - Introduction.
  CLOCK: [2010-06-17 Thu 11:55]--[2010-06-17 Thu 14:40] =>  2:45  :eschulte:
  - First essay.
  CLOCK: [2010-06-18 Fri 12:10]--[2010-06-18 Fri 13:20] =>  1:10  :svauban:
  - Brainstorming.
  :END:
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Of course, when using tags, that would imply that identifiers don't contain
spaces, if I'm not misspeaking.
