I used to handle that by saying to the new controller "BuzzBomb 234X,
7000
feet, on a vector." A previous controller can't issue an instruction that
has any effect in a subsequent sector, to the best of my knowledge, and
the
"new" controller can do whatever s/he needs to do without regard for what
the previous controller did or said.


I was taught that when on a vector, to check in with "New York, Cessna 123,
assigned 270 heading".


No altitude?


Altitude if it's a handoff to a new facility. A new controller in the same
facility, no altitude.
