ok, thats possible. i was thinking about this solution and there was
just the problem of "addgeometrycolumn" which displays an error that
geometry-columns can only be added to tables, not to views. 

The problem was/is that some applications only refers to entries fo the
"geometry_columns"-table. Now i added the entry by myself and it is
working. 

Maybe one problem left, but i didnt checked the performance of creating
polygons using a vews... ill do it later.

thank you for your help
