Just a suggestion, maybe someone could verify or rebutt...I have not 
tried this.

If you take care at keeping UIDs and GIDs consistent, I think it would 
be safe to

1. Keep all your work files in a ~/work directory on the home partition.

2. In the second OS, mount the home partition to something like 
/mnt/otherOS/home

3. symlink the work directory into your new home directory.

Or maybe

1. Use a separate partition for /home/<username>/work

2. Edit /etc/fstab to mount this on the OS' you want it available in.

The configuration files for all the apps and other things will be in the 
home partitions belonging to the respective OS'.

Caveats, anyone?
