When switching to or from a loaded crossbow, the item in the off hand immediately disappears, unlike the item in the main hand

There is no animation for second hand items (My character is right handed, so in this case, his left hand items) when I switch to a loaded crossbow. The right hand has a smooth "falling" animation of what ever item it is holding when I switch to a loaded crossbow, but the left hand item doesn't. It just flicks out of existence (But just to clarify, this is just a visual bug, I still have the item). I noticed this when I had my shield in one hand and one of my tools in hte other when switching to the crossbow. I think that the left hand's animation should do the "falling animation" like the right hand does, but if this turns out to not be a bug, I guess I am suggesting the addition.
