Speed in Final Cut to Apple Color

Hi there.
We recently recieved Final Cut Studio 2 and I am trying to establish a decent workflow with Color as our grading application.
I have tested the "send to color" function now on some our projects, and it works quite OK except for shots that have time remapping on them. The release notes says that:
"Variable speed effects from Final Cut Pro do not play properly in Color. Constant speed clips work fine."
In my test even the clips with constant speed adjustments play incorrectly. It actually plays another portion of the original mediafile and plays this at a different speed. Why is this?
Is there some way that you can use the rendered files from final cut instead?
Has this always been a problem with Final Touch?
The project is a DV pal, 25fps
Has anyone else any other observations regarding FCP -> COLOR and back again?

For now, you are probably better doing what we all did in FT.
Export new clips @ 100% speed, bring them back to your FCP sequence and re-send to Color.
