I'm coming in a bit late on this but poking through the posts. - some comments. Avid 1:1 RGB still uses 709 color space. It says RGB but really means 4:4:4. The video levels are still 16-235 on an 8-bit scale.
Alexa ProRes QuickTime files are also mapped as 709 color. This is true for ProRes4444 as well as ProResHQ. The proper way to get these into MC is via AMA and not through any standard import routine.
There is no way to pass a signal through Avid and out again via QuickTime and have it be completely transparent. The levels should be close, but they will never be transparent. Your best bet if things are already trancoded is to use the Avid codec. One option might be to export with the Avid codec and then transcode again to a ProRes flavor or an uncompressed 10-bit codec using QT Player Pro.
