No, you wouldn't need to recode all the modules that you use. db_rewrite_sql appends conditions to queries, so it would apply to everything and you would only need to put in one place.
But did you try the ignore_user module that I linked to? It seems like it would do exactly what you want.
Here's the link again, just in case: http://drupal.org/project/ignore_userOn Mon, Dec 1, 2008 at 1:57 PM, Vasanth Govind <govivasanth@gmail.com> wrote:

If you do end up needing to code this, it should be pretty straightforward. A table to hold users ignore preferences, and probably a db_rewrite_sql to make sure that node queries don't retrieve results authored by users who are in the current user's ignore list.
Actually, just googled "Drupal ignore module" and this came up: http://drupal.org/project/ignore_user
