This may sound silly, but what if the solar streamers actually obscured the comet rather than fry it, giving the appearance of a disappearing, and now reappearing object? The Stereo A images, where more of its path can be traced than in the SoHo images (due to a diffreent viewing angle?), suggest that this may be happening. ISON is, after all, flying THROUGH the corona, not passing in front of it.
