Here is another approach to this auto-clocking question.
Maybe what you really want to track is not how much time you spend on a
specific task but rather how you distribute your time over the tasks.
In this case, you don't need to explicitely clock in and out. You can
act as if a clock was
and edit the entry
to be more accurate if it wasn't.
I would really value a feature like this.

I just started using clocking and it seems really useful. It
occured me it could also be done automatically for certain tasks
which are performed in the org buffer.
For example, I work on some text which I keep in an org subtree,
the branches of the subtree hold the chapters, etc.
If the main
If something like this were implemented, I would definitely try it, as
a way to see where I am wasting effort etc. in the org hierarchy. I
might even use it all the time, if it works.
However, I would probably want it to apply to all headlines above a
certain level, and measure all activity
