I've committed this now with Steve's new verification of 
"Optional click track duration" allowing whole numbers only,
and added "Whole numbers only" to right of the text box.

Also tweaked the error message which referred to "Optional  
click track length" to refer to the exact name of the input 
box. 

And tweaked the help screen message for this field. It was:  

  'Optional click track duration': if you enter a value into this\nfield
   [minutes seconds (separated by a space)] or [seconds],\nthe 
   generated click track will be at or near this duration,\nbased on
   this rule: only when time gives an exact number\nof measures will
   this number of  measures be generated,\notherwise one additional
   measure will be generated.

It's now: 

  'Optional click track duration': If you enter a value into this\nfield,
   either [minutes seconds] (separated by a space), or\n[seconds], the
   generated click track will be at or slightly\nlonger than this duration: 
   the end of the track is extended\ninto a whole measure if the entered 
   duration does not\nproduce this. Use whole numbers only.

I "think" that's a bit clearer, but if you don't agree I can change it
back.
