croissants aren't necessarily sweet! I think it looks good without an example.

Fair point. We may want to specify that it refers to sweet baked goods (as opposed to the dough or savoury pastries like Cornish pasties).

I do think we should include pastry in the first sense, or even as a separate sense. There's a discernible 
difference in the search results on google images for 甘いパン vs "sweet bread". Japanese Wikipedia 
describes a "Danish" like this: "デニッシュとは、パンの一種。" English wikipedia says "A Danish pastry, 
sometimes shortened to just Danish, is a multilayered, laminated sweet pastry in the viennoiserie 
tradition." I'm having trouble finding any English-language references to Danish pastry as "bread." On 
Quora (a site I definitely don't hold in high repute, but still), the consensus seems to be that a 
croissant is not a bread but a pastry. https://www.quora.com/Is-croissant-a-type-of-bread
enwiki, again, says that "Pastry is differentiated from bread by having a higher fat content"

Splitting on source language.
I don't think the "pastry" glosses are needed.
Should we drop the sense 1 note and instead add パン as a gikun reading to the 麺麭 entry?
