I usually make an column labeled PDPIC or have an asterisk next to every PIC time logged.

On the 8710 you log it as PIC and solo time, however your log book should not match this. Because in the FAA's eyes this is technically "solo" time.

You can not log PIC in the aircraft unless you are rated or sole occupant. Which in your case, is neither of those.
THIS^

all of my "solo ME PIC" time without a rating was specifically labeled as such in my logbook.
