I think it would be good to fix a few bugs within MathJax before updating to the new version.

Amire80 added a parent task: T65882: [upstream] arrows in MathJax menus point the wrong way in RTL.

Amire80 mentioned this in T50118: Math extension does not support complex scripts.

Are there any blockers for this? Is this very complicated?

See also T99369. We use the latest MathJax version in the Mathoid renderer on server side. However, due to conflicts with two different resource loaders for mediawiki and mathjax it does not seem reasonable to update mathjax. Furthermore there are browser plugins that do a better job and don't even require a wikimedia login.

One bug I really care about is the menu that appears when I right-click the formulas - it has wrong arrows in RTL (T65882). Will this menu stop appearing when it is removed from the client?

Mathoid does not produce specific menus when right clicking a formula. What happens when right clicking a formula depends on the browser.
