Re: [O] org-clock-select-task: how does it work?

Ah; nice potential functionality hiding there. Unfortunately, although it 
prompts me for a task, it just ends up clocking me in to whatever task is at 
point in the current buffer (probably the same behavior you are getting with 
problem #3); the practical result is the same as C-c C-x TAB. Has this ever 
worked correctly? 

I don't see any duplicates in the list. And I assume you're right with problem 
#1, but since my sessions usually span days or weeks I don't have any problem 
with that.
