I'm supposing you mean that, on each site, each user will have a
specific profile that is not shared with other sites.

The interesting thing about using a foreign key that points to the
user table is that it doesn't change the db schema for the user table,
so it's quite a light-weight solution.

I believe so, setting edit_inline parameter, as shown in the second
part of the Django tutorial.

Well, it depends on your model. I find it best fire up the shell
("python manage.py shell"), import my model classes and just play with
it until I get the results I want. I imagine it will be something
along the lines of:
site = newsletter.site
User.objects.all(profile__site = site.id)
HTH,
