Every distro has special ways of storing a number of information bits in each users /home directory. While some info is standardized -- think gnupg, ssh -- other data bits like kde, gnome, sane, xine, tend to be more distro-specific. So for that reason I recommend _against_ sharing or swapping /home directories. Instead, I suggest using either a /docs/<username> directory to locally share documents between distros _or_ putting a Samba server into place so file are shared across the network.
OTOH, I do not really understand your motive for wanting to swap /home dirs. Do you want to keep distro A /home partition safe _or_ do you want to re-install distro B but keep its /home partition intact?
