Description
Does this feature exist in Emacs orgmode core?
Yes
Orgmode link
https://orgmode.org/manual/Clocking-commands.html
It is C-c C-x C-d (org-clock-display)
Feature value
No response
Additional context
I may have missed it in the docs but I cannot see the equivalent to C-c C-x C-d which shows all the totals for clocked in times. The emacs version shows temporary numbers on header lines but at the end of the day the most useful is the total for one entire LOGBOOK. I always thought it would be nicer to have a placeholder in the headers where you want a total to be inserted. The same way you can get a summary of the DONE items using "[/]" as a placeholder.

Research direction
Start by reviewing the orgmode clocking implementation and the behavior described for Emacs org-clock-display (C-c C-x C-d). Determine how totals for a LOGBOOK and a header placeholder should be represented, then identify existing tests for clocked time or summary placeholders. Done means the requested totals are available in the relevant orgmode workflow and covered by tests.
