One way could be to import them into postgis and set up a view that selects all 
from those tables.

Does it really have to be a single layer?  Could you not use a layer group?

All in a single layer? Does that mean they all have the same set of attributes?
Anyways, no, we don't have a way to support that.


also, do we have support for esri geo databases?

No supported way, but you could try using the geotools OGR data store
(there is no plugin packaging for it, you'll have to build from sources):
