In fact this is an unsolvable situation. Any time the linux operating systems are not sharing a common grub config, operates which modify the grub config while booted into a linux system...
How difficult is it to install Suse, Ubuntu, and Fedora with one shared /boot partition? Would that be a possible solution in the future?
Considering that Ubuntu and Suse have chosen not to reuse an existing /boot from Fedora... but have instead chosen to cull grub entries... that tells me that this line of reasoning is absolutely a non-starter for discussion. Whatever rationale they used to cull grub entries instead of sharing /boot... still exists and you are going to have one hell of a time convincing them otherwise.
