Atanas Banov:
here is something you both seems to have not considered: imagine you
make decision if ^Q has to comment or uncomment based on the 1st line
and not on each line individually in the block.
When first implementing Ctrl+Q, this looked to have similar
advantages and disadvantages

I see the developers of Scite are either newbies to GUI programming, or
they operate in a world of their own. Ctrl-Q is reserved for Quit (or
Exit) in every GUI API

Ctrl+Q is not reserved for Quit on every platform.

Thank you for your thoughtful response. Although I'm not convinced by your
reasoning, I will concede that

Commenting and uncommenting should be two different commands: the whole
point of nested comments is that it allows you to comment a block of text
which may already contain comments. Having one command do both

It is not usual to change a line from being code to being a comment
as most lines of code make no sense as English text. If you do sometimes
