Haven't had much need to touch on VIEWs since college, but it looks like this won't really do the trick.

The view definition is ?frozen? at creation time, so changes to the underlying tables afterward do not affect the view definition. For example, if a view is defined as SELECT * on a table, new columns added to the table later do not become part of the view.

This is not really an ideal solution as it is essentially the same as simply copying the tables, but in an unalterable state. Not necessarily a problem... until the user changes their username/password/email.
Still, it might be easier to have the primary site update the relevant view for the subsite than it would be to have the subsite pull the information from the primary db.
