Description
Currently, it seems it is not possible to comment out code once inside the VS Code Visual Editor. The native command (for me on Mac Cmd+Shift+7) doesn't work, and although it is present in the Edit menu (Toggle Line Comment and Toggle Block Comment) they have no effect. Would be great to have them supported! :-)

Research direction
Start by reproducing the issue in the VS Code Visual Editor using the Edit menu's “Toggle Line Comment” and “Toggle Block Comment” commands, along with the native Cmd+Shift+7 shortcut on macOS. Trace how these commands are handled in the editor and verify that line and block commenting visibly affect content when done.
