A comment is a special node in DOM. See the Comment class. A comment could indeed contain anything, including wrongly formatted code. So there is not such thing as toggle comment/uncomment in DOM, even if that’s what we are used to do as developper.
So to uncomment, I guess you will need to remove the node, and create a regular DOM node that correspond to your need. You may need to parse the comment content returned by Comment#getData().
