There is no such functionality in Org.

Why not send ox-ascii output whilst editing.  Tell them to just edit and
use ediff when you get it back.  It would still require manual work to
adapt the notes.  But I'd guess that's always the case.

Presumably, you could also use ox-org to get a cleaner version of your
file that you could send.

Cheers,
Rasmus
