The difficult part here is that the MIB trees are typically built the
other way out:

mib.stuff.interfacething.0
mib.stuff.interfacething.1
mib.stuff.interfacething.2
mib.stuff.otherinterfacething.0
mib.stuff.otherinterfacething.1
mib.stuff.otherinterfacething.2

Rather than:

mib.interfaces.0.stuff.interfacething
mib.interfaces.0.stuff.otherinterfacething
mib.interfaces.1.stuff.interfacething
...

I'm not sure if you can wildcard in the middle of a view, e.g.:

deny mib.stuff.*.0
permit mib.stuff.*.1
deny mib.stuff.*.2

Otherwise, it's going to be quite a long-winded view definition...
