Follow breaks when you press spacebar while swimming but not while running

I've noticed that if I hit spacebar while my toons are swimming, this breaks follow. But I can run around hopping all day and the follow doesn't break. Anyone know why?

not sure why either, I just tap jump then my follow macro if I'm swimming, -shrug-

edit: after thought, I believe it has to do with the different vertical levels. you'll see what i'm talking about if you have one toon swim straight up on follow or straight down, sometimes it breaks follow as well.

When you jump in water, it counts as "moving up" thus making you "move" in a direction, instead of just jumping... any "movement" = break follow.

Its the same principle that appies when flying. Jump (space bar) is considered a move and thus breaks follow.
