Perforce: Move a changelist to P4Sandbox?

I have a changelist in Perforce that's grown to the point where I'd like to start making checkpoint commits (26 edits, 1 add). I don't want to commit to mainline, though, since the code isn't usable yet. I have P4Sandbox installed, but I haven't been using it: the changelist belongs to my client on the main depot. Is there a simple way to move the pending changelist to P4Sandbox?

I can think of a couple of options. First, you can use shelving as a way to save work-in-progress without using P4Sandbox. You can shelve as many copies of your work-in-progress as you like.

Second, you can make a private branch (if the admins allow it).

Finally, if you do want to use P4Sandbox, you'll need to set up a new instance, then just manually copy your work-in-progress to the new P4Sandbox working area.
