This block commenting feature is almost ubiquitous on modern editors. If they can't
already do it, they can be made to do so (e.g. I used nedit and it can now comment
selected blocks for a variety of languages that require the "line-by-line" type of block
comment).
I googled "vim block comment" and got the following (among others):
http://www.vim.org/scripts/script.php?script_id=473
http://notfaq.wordpress.com/2006/07/28/vim-comment-blocks-of -code/
The first details how to set up vim to do it, the second appears to indicate it's already
possible with the right combo of keystrokes.
cheers,
