Bug report: Firefox Reader TTS (Narrate): Stops at each line break ('\n')

First of all: I could not find any article on how to file a bug report, so I opened up this question.

The built-in TTS function "Narrate" stops reading for a second, whenever a line break ('\n') occurs. Unfortunately, in my case (https://paroj.github.io/gltut/About%20this%20Book.html), there are lots of line breaks in the middle of the text, making using Narrate impossible.

(You can find the TTS function if you open up the Reader in the URL bar, in case you want to reproduce this.)

Is there anything I can do to fix this? (besides trying to do a browser extension)

Thanks

Using my advanced web search skills, I managed to write this probably horrible JS code:

Javascript function ttsWorkaround() {

 var paragraphs = document.getElementsByTagName('p');
 for (let p of paragraphs) {
   p.innerHTML = p.innerHTML.replace(/\n */g, ' ');
 }

}

ttsWorkaround();

To apply this to every book/web page without using the console, one probably has to write an extension. And one might want to change the name of the tag ('p') to whatever tag fits the specific page. (Maybe even 'body'.)
