Still according to my experience this is a bad idea. Last time I tried
something like this Windows was corrupting boot loader from time to
time so it was impossible to boot anything except Windows.

I would recommend to use one OS you are using most often and run
second under VirtualBox. Or using two separate computers one for each
OS if possible. This way you will escape a lot of possible problems.
