Master of This School

I found something very intringuing while reading PoA for the second 
time. It is minute, but interesting nonetheless. 

When Snape comes across the Marauder's Map, he tells the 
map "Professor Severus Snape, master of this school, demands that 
you reveal the secrets you hide" (quote is not exact but along the 
same lines, although the "master of this school" part is exact). But 
there is a little problem here. You see, Snape is not the master of 
Hogwarts!!!! DD is the "master of this school"!!!! So why does Snape 
call himself master of the school? I wonder what he is after? Does 
he wish to become the Headmaster of Hogwarts at one point? 
hmmm....... 
This could provide clues into his personality... and his private 
thoughts (possibly, he considers himself greater than Dumbledore, 
the true master?)... But can it also tell us anything yet to come?
