It causes not damage and I'm not worried about it. As a matter of fact I actually find it somewhat reassuring to hear/feel the gear engage.

This may not be what you are experiencing. I don't think I've felt or heard this when the vehicle is really moving.
i have that clunk too. if you make sure you hold the clutch down for like 2 seconds before putting it in gear, there won't be any clunks.
