    Replaces space character (' ') with comments '/**/'

    Example:
        * Input: SELECT id FROM users
        * Output: SELECT/**/id/**/FROM/**/users

    Tested against:
        * Microsoft SQL Server 2005
        * MySQL 4, 5.0 and 5.5
        * Oracle 10g
        * PostgreSQL 8.3, 8.4, 9.0

    Notes:
        * Useful to bypass weak and bespoke web application firewalls
