I wish we could pick different animation sets for our characters

I doubt using emotes of the opposite gender will ever happen just for the headache it would give. Similarly trying to convert each and every emote to fit every race/gender might be too much of a task. However giving alternate animations for some emotes should be doable. Sit and Doze (When on a bed.) originally had a single pose each. Eventually more were added you could toggle through just like idle stances. Give it time and if there's enough of a demand we'll probably see it sooner or later.

I'd like to see this as well. Personality/mannerisms are part of a character and they shouldn't be tied to other attributes.

Copying existing emotes is probably the easiest thing to do. All the races should have the same type of skeleton, they'll be different sizes, some different shapes, but they all move the same joints. If this wasn't the case it would make animations for job actions (skills, poses, etc) very difficult and time consuming to reproduce.
