Color correct project and export the clips with color correction?

I have a project that was editied in FC7 and it was sent to me for color correction. I want to color correct in Final Cut Pro X and I have no trouble getting it into Final Cut X. My problem is how to correct it in FCX and export the project WITH the color correction I have made so it can be finished in FC7, by the orginal editor. Can anyone tell me how to hold the corrections in the export?

The only way at this stage would be to export a master file and have whoever sent it to you re-open in FCP7. Xto7 can get most of the project back to FCP7 but the things that won't survive the trip unfortunately include CC.

A better idea probably would be to have the other editor do everything but CC and send it to you for CC as the last step.
