Surely this is just a matter of using a fully featured IDE to develop your code in - if you use Flashdevelop for instance you can block comment/uncomment any lines/lines using "//" syntax from the edit menu with "comment line", or with keyboard shortcuts - this will not conflict with block comments "/**/" and therefore you will no longer have a problem. Life once more is wonderful.
