Starting with the next release of calibre (V3.7), the search "vl:"virtual library name" will find all books in that virtual library. You can use that search in the content server user setup to limit that user to a virtual library. This is easier than setting up saved searches, and is less likely to become obsolete than copying the search from the virtual library setup.

FWIW: you also will be able to use the vl: prefix in calibre's search bar. For example, if you want to find all books that are not in some virtual library, use
Code:
not vl:"some library"
If you want to see books that are in two virtual librarys, use
Code:
vl:library1 and vl:library2
