I believe that what happens by default when you share a material is that all
the nodes (image nodes, bump nodes...) use the texture projection listed
highest in the object's cluster folder. If the texture projections are
named the same on all the objects, you should be able to just use the
dropdown menu in the image node to select a uv set. But if they all have
different names you'll have to set them on an object by object basis.
This can be done in the image node by selecting the object from the dropdown
menu to the left of the texture projection menu. (In shared materials it is
set to All, with lone materials it is greyed out). Now pick your texture
projection.
Hope that answers your question
