I personally think that this would be very hard to pull off. (If your web site goes viral and suddenly has 2.5 million users, it’s gonna be really hard to pull off.) Your proposed solution is not only serious over-kill, in my humble, but it does not scale up. At all.
Pragmatically speaking, you need to include a user_id column in every table, then index that column, and then design the data-model layer (perhaps using some kind of base class?) to be certain that user_id is always part of the requisite criteria that is always used for those tables and/or views. A base-class could “elegantly” ensure that user_id is always part of any where clause, and always inserted as a non-NULL value in inserts.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
