Bug 273572 – Web Inspector: await is not supported in console in some scenarios

• Status: NEW
• Component: Web Inspector

[Tim Guan-tin Chien [:timdream]]

The following works:

```
const a = await Promise.resolve("hi");
```

The following does not, if I paste the lines and run it at once:

```
const a = await Promise.resolve("hi");
console.log(a);
```

neither does this:

```
console.log(await Promise.resolve("hi"));
```

Expected result for the not working case is for console to print "hi".

The first not working case prints the following error:

SyntaxError: Unexpected identifier 'Promise'. Expected ';' after variable declaration


The second one prints:

SyntaxError: Unexpected identifier 'Promise'. Expected ')' to end an argument list.
