[Orgmode] Progress logging with org-mode

A feature of org-mode I have started to use a lot is the clock, to record the 
amount of time I spend on different tasks. I'll start a clock in the task or 
subtask I'm working on, and then clock out and add a note when I move to a 
differnt task.

The result is often something like this:
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
* Tasks
** Task 1
*** Sub-task Foo
    CLOCK: [2007-09-28 Fri 11:52]--[2007-09-28 Fri 12:53] =>  1:01
    - Finally cracked the Foo problem
      CLOCK: [2007-09-28 Fri 10:50]--[2007-09-28 Fri 11:50] =>  1:00
    - Dealing with problems continuing Foo-ing
      CLOCK: [2007-09-28 Fri 09:50]--[2007-09-28 Fri 10:50] =>  1:00
    - A good start to Foo
      
      This is some information that I don't want to forget about doing Foo.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------

As you can see, the clock notes track my activity within a subtask, but the 
indentation seems odd, and the useful information about the subtask is in 
danger of being swamped by a mass of reverse-ordered progress logs.

Has anyone got some suggestions of better ways to do this?

(preferably using Org-mode because I really like it ;)
