I would like to replicate the permissions from one database to another. Could that be done by simply copying the mysql table over?

Not really.
I think your best bet is to query information_schema
tables (SCHEMA_PRIVILEGES, TABLE_PRIVILEGES, USER_PRIVILEGES
) and use this data to create GRANT
queries
