Many years ago I had this on Win2k and I mounted the shared partition as /home/myusername and in Windows I mapped it with some drive manager thing to C:\Users\myusername and it was quite the clusterfuck, because the dotfiles are visible in Windows and hidden files visible in Linux, but at least my Downloads etc were auto sorted to the correct dir on both. Oh and the permissions didn’t stick, so i had to set the more restrictive like .ssh from a boot script.
