Using the Java code formatter (Control+Shift+F) to format java doc containing Java code snippets marked with <pre> tags changes encoding to XML style, e.g. double quotes to &quot; and less to &lt; which is correct.

It could be helpful if the removing the comment would be supported inclusive the deconding of the XML encoded characters by a simmilar edit command, e.g. "Remove JavaDoc Comment".

Use case: Comment out some functions and keep formatting human understandable. Using "//" to comment out is not helpful because the next activation of the Java code formatter will push all the the left side removing the indentation.

Example: How to uncomment the following routine?

/**
  * <pre>
  * public String toString(int value)
  * {
  *     if (value &gt; 0)
  *         return &quot;Yes&quot;;
  *     return &quot;No&quot;;
  * }
  * </pre>
