I use bootctl from sys-boot/systemd-boot to creat a boot-time menu
(photo attached) from which I choose what system I want to run. This
has worked well, but I'm not confident I'll be able to mix systemd and
openrc like this for much longer.
My question is how to do this in Grub.

Why not try rEFInd? It handles UEFI booting simply, without the no-longer-needed bloat of GRUB.

Hm. If I'm reading the wiki right, it can't handle choice of run levels with a selected kernel. Or is that wrong?
From what I understand you should be able to tweak kernel command line options in /boot/EFI/gentoo/refind_linux.conf.

Ah, right. I'll have a look at that.
