I decided to put a warning about this in the docstring in my patch.  My
assumption was that this is enough.  If a user wants to change the
default, he will most probably see the docstring and will have to
actively ignore the warning.

I do not use the vanilla Org way of selecting tasks to clock from
history - I use org-mru-clock, for which the restriction doesn't make
sense.  So we have something else to use, and it doesn't bother me that
I can't select older tasks with the original Org method.

Best,
