I agree with Morganni and Bob in that, well, we're going to see people with different takes on the transition in the same teams, so really this can't be examined too closely. I prefer the 'native versions of Character X' take rather than 'refugee'.
But I have no qualms about picking up past interaction with other peoples' CoH-extracted characters, as if the two characters already know each other. 'cause really, it's mostly about the form of the interaction rather than the substance of specific past events.
And here's another thing. Champions has its own thriving roleplay community. Check out Champions Online Roleplayers if you haven't already, and their associated global channels. While it's natural to look back at the past, to not want to discard the past...there's also looking to the future. Rather than shoehorn things in, I'd rather work around the elements the new environment has to play with. I want to rebuild bridges with the CORP community - I love you folks, I really do, but an immigrant needs to integrate into wider society and not stay in the CoH expatriate part of town, where people only speak CoHglish. =)
So I play 'Ultimate' or 'Animated Universe' versions of my CoH characters. I keep what I can keep, I change what I have to.
But that's me. I respect other choices. At the end of the day, that's what matters, right? So long as it's something you're happy with.
