specify time of day for org-resolve-clocks, not number of minutes

Question

I can use org-resolve-clocks if I've been away from a task but kept the clock for the task running -- but when I do that and select K ("keeps however many minutes you request and then immediately clock out of that task."), I have to specify a number of minutes.

Instead, I want to specify a time, since usually that's what I remember ("my coworker stopped to ask a question at 10:45"). I'd like a way to get the K functionality, but instead of doing the math to figure out a number of minutes, I want to just type in a time of day.

What would I need to do for that?

Answer 1

It seems there's no way for org to do this right now. But I've sent a patch to the org-mode mailing list; the change to org-clock.el is quite simple:
