Description

To enable time-tracking, "stop" should move start-time and stop-time to a task annotation.
It should be easy to report from, and write to, and might be similar to having entered

$ task 55 ann:start_2010-01-04_19:32:22---stop_2010-01-04_21:19:13

$ task 55 ann:start_2010-01-05_09:23:02---stop_2010-01-05_11:45:32

$ task 55 ann:start_2010-01-05_23:05:25---stop_2010-01-06_00:06:13

with simply

$ task 55 start

and 

$ task 55 stop

at the noted times, or by hitting "s" in interactive mode, with 55 selected

Federico's excellent work on expanding annotations to support times allow start and stop times to be implemented as vanilla annotations:

$ proposedtask rc:minimal.rc start 1
Using alternate .taskrc file minimal.rc
Started 1 'Foo'
$ proposedtask rc:minimal.rc stop 1 
Using alternate .taskrc file minimal.rc
Stopped 1 'Foo'
$ proposedtask rc:minimal.rc info 1
Using alternate .taskrc file minimal.rc

Cory, that's a nice clean way to do this. I like that.
