Hi, I just tried it. I may be missing something, but BBEdit already does what 
you want.

Try  selecting just a part of a line and choose Text > Comment Lines. This does 
not insert any line breaks in the comment.

Try selecting a whole line - including the line break (this is what you get 
e.g. with a mouse click in the number gutter).  Now, the Comment-command adds 
line breaks with the comment tags.

So, maybe you just had whole lines selected while using it?

Regards,
Roland
