That doth have it's limits, especially dealing with video transitions.
You then need to make a cut for the frame before the transition begins, one a frame after the transition, and using a process start with one correction and blend out to the other correction. I've seen people do this on a single track, but more that dupe sections and place them above each other. One with the grade going out, the other in, and blend the two clips for viewability. It's been a while since I've done that myself, Ann may have more experience with it. If Sg can read you media, you could try installing the last Sg version (available from the previous versions options in the CC app), create a project & import that media into Sg, and do the auto-correction/manual-cleanup process there.

Export a high-quality file out of Sg, set to export clips not a full sequence, import those clips into PrPro, recreate the sequence, and grade then. I think Resolve has a similar tool for auto detecting clips out of a long bit of media.
There isn't anything in PrPro that I can think of to do that, however. Putting the media on an SSD or old-style spinner & shipping it just might make more sense. There are several different ways to approach this. If you are talking about short 1-minute videos, I bet you could avoid having to transfer/ship all the raw content. Here is a very manual, but easy to understand approach.

You are just going to find these the good old fashioned manual way - just watch the video.if there are transitions, add a dissolve that is the same length as the original transition.Now you can color correct each individual clip.The transitions you put in there will dissolve the color correction effect between the clips too.Throughout this process, you can always compare to the dirty version by turning the track visibility back on V2 - but be sure it gets turned off before you render.Render out your masterpiece and send it back to the editor.
He then lays back in the graphics and renders out the final version.
This is by no means the only way to do it, but possibly the easiest with the least amount of messing about with media management, XMLs and such. Of course, if you really want to go that route, I can explain a few different approaches. Naturally, the manual notching approach only makes sense for very short pieces. If there are tons of edits, it's going to get really old really fast - at that point and XML solution will be essential. You will want to media manage your project, which basically reduces it to just the regions of the source media that you are actually using (with handles preferably). Unfortunately, I am not certain that you can do this in FCPX (somebody please correct me if I am wrong).
