Hi,
I agree with Aere, this is especially true if you use multiple DE.  I
have not really had any problems using the same /home for Lubuntu
installs, as nothing drastically changes in Lubuntu... though, the shift
to LXQt may prove to negate this one day.  So, I think if you are using
ONLY Lubuntu the upgrade should be just fine with /home on a separate
partition.  I have never had any issues with it... but I have only used
Lubuntu since around 11.04.  Previously I had only used Gnome, and XFCE.

Gnome has had issues occasionally with this problem, though it could be
that I do some intense things to my computers and sometimes hack around
in things normal users do not need to ever.
