In my new job I'm also working with css files and html-templating with inline php. I just instinctly selected a bit of css and pressed ctrl-e to comment that, but the whole line got commented instead.

I know this means breaking your style, but: you can split that over multiple lines with minimal/no impact on file size, and then it is easier to manage when doing such things as commenting out individual rules. e.g.
.front #content .element-count-2 #block-block-1 { width: 250px; height: 135px; }
IMHO also a bit more readable, but I realise that's my personal preference :)
True, but that's not my point.
Another example:
<div class="hardcoded-class <?php print $extra_class; ?>"></div>
...and I want to comment out "print $extra_class;"...
-or-
$var = $var1 + $var2 / 10;
...and I want to comment out "/ 10"
There are numerous examples where "comment selection" could be handy, IMHO.
