	Comments:	It could be one of at least 3 senses. I think this entry is rather over-split. GG5 and Daijirin only have 3 senses. We have 800+ sentences using it, and I'd hate to re-index them.

	Comments:	It seems to mean "to claim" in the example above? Should it be added to [3] to take as; to treat as?

	Comments:	Hi, as I understand it, after the volitional form of a verb, とする (or at least the form としている) can also mean "be about to do something". If I'm correct, perhaps this meaning could be added?
