Beast Race Bear Mount Animation Issue

Not quite sure if this could be considered an animation bug, or just oversight or something... but this has been a problem ever since Orsinium launched, and it has NEVER been addressed... when a character's mount speed skill reaches a certain threshold, and going up from there, if a bear mount does its normal jog, or sprint, a beast race player's tail will twist and spasm unnaturally on the saddle during the bear's gallop. It looks especially dreadful on argonians, and absolutely horrible at high speeds (when sprinting with Major Gallop active, for example). Compare this to the rider's animation on a camel mount at high speeds; an argonian's and khajiit's tail moves up and down with the gallop of the camel fluidly, not behaving like it's having a stroke like it does on the bear. The below image summarizes the issue quite well... now imagine the tail twisting like that and straightening back out at a speed of roughly 1/3rd of a second every second and you get the full picture of the animation wackiness.
