Do you think that a future version of PM will solve this problem?
any workaround?

That depends on if anyone is willing to take that issue. It has a bounty attached to it.

any workaround?

Kindly ask the website owners to re-order their javascript so functions inside blocks are defined at the top of the block (instead of *after* calling the function).

As ES6 and onwards script features are sadly nothing trivial and require very special knowledge to implement them, it is essential to find someone who is willing to volunteer and help Moonchild implementing this.

You can help and for example ask in coding boards on the Internet for example how to do that, or you could forward people to Moonchild.

Implementing these days web drafts and what people call today "standards" like that one in this topic and many more is almost impossible without help from third party developers. Big browser developers have the benefit to have special teams who take care about that issues. Pale Moon which is a fork, does sadly not have that possibility.

Just look around and ask - there are tons of forums available, where others can gather informations, as Moonchild has tons of other tasks open which have to be finished

Other possibilities to help...

- You have friends who are coding experts or friends of friends which are... aks them for help
- You are interested in broadening your horizon and learning new things.. here is your chance
- IRC = good resource for gathering help/information, for example freenode network or Mozilla's own network

The overall point is.. without help from others, this issue and many other related one's can't be solved in a simple way
