Research direction

No files or tests are named. Start by locating the existing keyboard shortcut handling and the node editing behavior, then determine how comment and uncomment actions should be represented. Done means the chosen shortcut reliably comments and uncomments nodes and the behavior is covered by the project's relevant checks.

Description

I would like to suggest a new feature that I believe would be good user experience. It would be incredibly helpful to have keyboard shortcuts to quickly comment and uncomment nodes. Specifically, keyboard shortcuts like Ctrl + K or Ctrl + / would make this process more efficient.

Would you be open to implementing it in a future release?

Thank you!
