This kind of hybridizing can be used to get different colors in a variety such as the kikyo. You can also sometimes loose the characteristecs you desire and have to start over. Here is another youjiro x kikyo that took after the youjiro color but it is also single. It could carry for double but I don`t know yet. It will take more work to get this in a double and I will have to go through about 3 generations of weeding out solid blue flowers and then a few may still come out solid without the white.

See the picture of the kikyo with the youjiro markings? I`m guessing unique traits and markings should be allowed a descriptive name attatched to the variety name such as color blue or blizzard? This could be kikyo youjiro(youjiro means ray white) maybe if it will continue to breed true? Without work it will throw some solids just like the rest of the youjiros,blizzards and Fujis.
