See, again, I don't see it as a component. I see it as something requiring a sense of fashion and color, just like the rest of what we do.
Yes, I guess it would really depend on how it is implemented. If it were implemented as yet another required component that a CH must have to make a pet into a mount, and the saddle always looked the same, then this is a component no matter what we choose to call it. If however this were an optional thing, which bestowed some tangible benefit to the user, and could be customized to a great extent by the tailor, and particularly if itcould be added after-the-fact by the customer afterthet pet is already trained,then yes, I agree with you, and I'd fully support adding of such a thing.
One thing to consider though: if your suggestion were implemented as written (it's a required thing for CH) it's not like this is the sort of thing we'd be creating interactively for a customer, like we would say a dress. Think about how the customer dynamic would work. A customer would come to a CH for a mount. 50% of the time the customer would come with a BE schematic and 50% of the time they'd come for whatever the CH had. It's not like the CH is then going to go hunting for a tailor to complete this transaction, and have the tailor use his/her fasion sense to construct some beautiful saddle that goes with the customers clothing and the color of the pet. No no no, the CH would want to reach into a crate of black saddles that they had conveniently tucked into their backpack and use that for the customer, and perhaps if the CH were particularly fashion-concious and did enough mount business, perhaps he would also have a crate of blue and red saddles for the customer to chose from.

Exactly!
I only place this as something Creature Handlers do because that seems to be the way to get features added to a profession these days.
