I use to clock in a task when beginning to write in a remember buffer.
For example when receive a phone call from a customer I pop up a
remember template and the first thing I do is to start the clock.

maybe a certain variable ...
You could use remember-mode-hook to run org-clock-in, maybe depending
on some string that you find and remove in the buffer. The string could
be part of the template, for example CLOCK-IN:
(add-hook 'remember-mode-hook 'my-start-clock-if-needed)
(defun my-start-clock-if-needed ()
(save-excursion
(goto-char (point-min))
(when (re-search-forward " *CLOCK-IN *" nil t)
(replace-match "")
(org-clock-in))))
After writing down notes and doing some stuff, documenting further
in the clocked in remember buffer, I finally want to save and close
the remember template.
After for example "C-u C-c C-c" I am asked if I want to clock out...
The query happens when the buffer gets killed - by then it is too
late, the
content of the buffer has already been filed away.
I will (in 5.20) have a check if the clock is running in the remember
buffer
before allowing you it file it. This will not be an automatic clock-out
because that would lead to trouble with possibly adding a note about
clocking out. But it will stop you from exiting without clocking out
first.
