Thanks!

Since I don't currently customize org-drawers I've removed this from my
.emacs again.  I only added it yesterday at Bastien's suggestion during
testing.  Thanks for the clarification.

Clocking seems to work much better now :)

I currently only have a single clock table per file so the jump to the
table to update is very useful for me.  I update the clock table many
times a day just to see where I am and not having to navigate to the
table first saves me a little bit of time.  

The key binding C-c C-c C-x C-r doesn't work very well for me since C-c
C-c is active in too many regions of the org file.  If I'm on a task
headline C-c C-c is intercepted for tags entry.  If I'm in a clock
drawer it I get "C-c C-c can do nothing useful at this location".

Actually I haven't managed to get C-c C-c C-x C-r to work at all yet :)

All I really need to get the old behaviour is globally bind some key to
a function that jumps to the clock table of the current org file and
updates the table.  You don't need to bind it to a key combination at
all by default.

Maybe all I really need is a function to jump to and reveal the next
clock table in the org file (wrapping back to the top of the file since
I'm normally somewhere in the middle when I want to update the table).
That way I can easily skip to all of the clock tables (currently only
one) in the file and just do C-c C-x C-r on each one.

A couple of other minor things:

 - The release notes mention the new function to jump to the current
   running clock (org-clock-goto after searching the source) but you
   never named the function in the release notes.  It only shows up in
   the ChangeLog.  I _love_ this function!! Thanks again!

 - After installing 5.11b org-version still reports 5.11.

Thanks for the quick fix(es).
