I'm not sure about the intent of the timeclock author about that. The
same as `project', `reason' could be expected to be a keyword
("finished", "pause", "lunch".) You can use non-blank separators to
cheat ("walk-dog").

Anyways, if the author's plans was to allow full strings, there is a bug
related to completing-read usage; if not, the documentation of timeclock
should be expanded to explain how `reason' should look like.

So I'll go ahead and file a bug (M-x report-emacs-bug)
