    At first I thought you wanted the icon to reflect what mount you are currently using (which given the huge amount of different mounts in the game, would be quite frankly so time consuming SE just wouldn't bother - ironically 1.0 which only ever had two mounts, the chocobo and goobbue, did have different mounted icons for each), but I realized you meant the description text, in which case it would still be time consuming to have to code each mount to 'flag' the name and different description... but it's much more likely.

    Having said that though, it would still be a nice thing to have. So I definitely would like to see this too.

    Yeah, a different icon would be a massive PITA.
    The reasoning is vanity, really. Sometimes I'll see someone riding or flying along and wonder, "Hey, that's cool. What kind of mount is that and how can I get it?"

    Then spend half an hour in a 3rd party site sifting through images of every mount in the game trying to find the one that matches.
