I would love to understand why that would be a requirement. I would
much
prefer backing up one database/schema. If I needed to restore a
single user
I then have options such as restoring to my test database then
extracting
that single user's data, though it is still unclear to me why that
would be a
requirement. If it is so single users can get a backup their own
data, I would
do it using a generic script or function. Since your users would see
their own
views only that should work fine.
