All animations are in the client data files. I would see it as fairly complex for my client to tell the server that I am using the phoenix heal animation (but not the phoenix fire animation) and have the server tell the other clients that are in/near the same location to use the phoenix animation when I heal rather than the column.
The animations are probably a bad place to suggest modification since (as we know) there are always people who liked the old one.
Rather than "reset", I would be all in favor of a new skill (developed via Lore, of course) that anyone interested (and meeting criterea) could take up an master. (Perhaps a new magic tree that becomes accessible once you are a Celestial Guardian or Avatar of Destruction. I have no idea what it might be, but that sort of thing could be added.)
