Well yes, you need 3 bytes to print a vid and 1 extra for a space. But
in binary, 2 bytes per VID and there are 4K valid VIDs so binary needs
more than 1 page too?
If using binary I would go for bit per valid bit
this solves it nicely.
We can have a separate field that shows whether untagged
packets are filtered.

I think you know that one of the points of sysfs
is to allow use without tools.
Tools are happier using other interfaces such as
ioctl or netlink.
