Why would it end the great war? Is there any reason for the rest of the Entente to stop fighting just because Russia is knocked out?
(Anyways, Poland in a German dominated Mittelseuropa would be tiny).

Poland already had a de jure existence under the Central Powers, and the questions are whether Vienna wants to cede Galicia to it (maybe, if Warsaw gets an Austrian as king) and whether annexing areas of White Russia to Poland makes sense as a long-term defensive measure, since Germany itself can't hope to occupy that much land long-term

I think building an artificial Weissruthenian state from scratch could be a German vanity project. They liked those sorts of things. The Germans would want to keep Poland as small as possible, i.e. only what was the Russian Kingdom of Poland. They might favor a larger Lithuania instead.
