Since all the file sizes are on one page in LFS, why don't you just put
all the sizes in general.ent as entities like the version number and md5sum?

I personally don't see the benefit. The file sizes aren't reused anywhere, unlike version numbers. That's the primary reason I use entities anyway. As for the md5sums, I'm not sure they're reused either or whether having them as entities makes them easier to process by jhalfs.
