How do I move Picks from a Collection to a Folder in Lightroom 3?

Question

On one of the rare occasions I've used Lightroom Collections, I found myself wanting to transfer the Pick/Reject info from the Collection back to the main Folder the photos are in. Picks are Collection-local, and there doesn't seem to be a built-in way of doing it. The best I could come up with is using a tag or coloured flag (which are global) as a temporary marker, allowing me to edit the Picks in the Folder. Is there a better way?

Answer

Temporarily tagging them is probably the best move. I've hit this same frustration before and that's how I moved on.
