I keep hitting the 'Toggle Comment' command with no selection, expecting it to work on the current line only, but it does the whole file. I find this behavior counter-intuitive. Does anyone else? And if so, is it possible to have it changed?
I would like to second that request. If I want to comment everything (which is rare enough), I can easily do Cmd-A Cmd-/. This change of behaviour would be really useful. If Allan doesn't want to change the default behaviour, maybe it would be possible to add a (hidden?) option for it?
I think the logic behind it is that it follows the general principle that a command accepts as input either a selected text or, in the absence of selected text, the entire document. It makes very good sense in most cases, and I consider the consistency in the behavior very important. It is probably just one extra keystroke to select the line, right? I admit it doesn't happen often that you would want to uncomment the entire document. I wouldn't object to the presence of a variable setting this behavior though. But I feel it should be easy to change the command in the uncomment bundle to just work on the given line if there is no selection.
