It was until last summer, at least.

What word do you suggest for "go to the GodPlane and muck around with things"?

To drag it back to the original topic--the question was "How can you undo illumination". I 'umbly suggest that whatever word you propose for "go to the godplane and muck around with things" ("godquest"? "cosmohacking"?), that would do it.

As an example: Teelo Estara went into the GodWorld and (resurrected/defeated/bound/absorbed/whatever) Nysalor. I propose that reversing the effects of Nysaloric illumination is no harder to do than what she did.
