I agree. I'll draft an entry.
うつそみ should also be split out as it has different kanji but I'm fine with dropping it entirely. It's very archaic.

I think it might be better to move 現人 to another entry with うつしおみ as its main reading. Koj is the only reference that has うつせみ as a reading of 現人.

GG5: 〔この世の人〕 this present body; this [one's] present existence; this mortal frame; 〔現世〕 this 「world [life]; temporal things.
  Comments:
It's all a bit idiomatic, but I think this is clearer.
I'll close and reopen as I have another issue here.

should sense 1 really have "man of this world" and "real world" in the same sense? I don't quite understand the intended meaning.
