Isn't this already achievable with a clever todo/archive structure?

See for example this:

* Project 1
  :PROPERTIES:
  :COLUMNS:  %20ITEM %4Time_Spent{:}
  :ARCHIVE:  ::** Archives for project 1
  :Time_Spent: 2:00
  :END:

** Task 1
   :PROPERTIES:
   :Time_Spent: 1:15
   :END:

** Archives for project 1
   :PROPERTIES:
   :COLUMNS:  %20ITEM %4Time_Spent{:}
   :Time_Spent: 0:45
   :END:

*** DONE Task 2
    :PROPERTIES:
    :Time_Spent: 0:45
    :ARCHIVE_TIME: 2007-10-16 mar 01:00
    :ARCHIVE_FILE: ~/test.org
    :ARCHIVE_CATEGORY: test
    :END:

Turning the column view will display a Time_Spent property both for
"Project 1" and for "Archives for project 1", which means that you can
"display the sum of times and also the sum of times for tasks that are
DONE."
