Sharing a single /boot can be tricky but consider the cursed solution I came up with last week: I set up a dual boot of Gentoo ans Void. I made a 2GB EFI fat partition that's mounted at /efi and I bind mounted /efi/gentoo/ to /boot in Gentoo and /efi/void to /boot in Void so now both distros think they have their very own /boot partition when in reality neither of them do. And this way I can have all of the kernels live on the EFI, outside of the encrypted root partition.
