The last time there was a 'discussion' on the forums about walking, I insisted it could have all kinds of restrictions on it, that it could be even more limited than the flypose emotes and people would still want it.
Various people insisted:
- It would be too hard to implement.
- It would have to be so limited that there would be no point.
- I was clueless.
- We would never have it.
I now openly sneer at all of the naysayers.

Actually, there is some kind of backwards walking animation - I've seen it when trying to pull back from some attacks.

Really? Different from the standard back-peddle? News to me... neat, I guess.

Trust the computer. The computer knows all.
Sincerely awesome news!
Now I need to list things I plan to do with the new Walk power.
1) Walk... er... well... places...
2) Walk... umm... other... places...
3) Oh! Defiantly refuse to run away from my enemies... show them my disdain for their obvious threat by simply WALKing away. The port to the hospital will provide me with all the speed I require.
4) Roleplay taking a walk with friends... oh wait... I don't have any friends.. ummm... Roleplay walking in quiet contemplative solitude.
5) Build a new and powerful appreciation for Sprint... comparable to the appreciation I had for my travel powers when all I had was Sprint.
6) Immediately begin begging for new "Prestige Walk" emotes like Saunter, Strut, Sashay and Mosey.
7) Eagerly anticipate "Crawl."
8) Six Slot Walk with Run Speed enhancements so I look like one of those Olympic Power Walkers.
9) Bitterly complain that Inherent powers are non-enhanceable.
10) Walk like a man. Talk like a man. Walk like a man, my son.
My mind wanders so often you've probably seen its picture on milk cartons. - Me... the first person version of the third person Steelclaw

I, on the other hand, insisted that it'd be as useful in-game as teats on a boar hog. Whether it subsequently got implemented doesn't actually affect that. |

It's too bad, too, because it could have some small purpose. I say this mainly because walk toggles that provide some actual in-game benefit have been done before. In the original Tomb Raider, for instance, if you toggled Lara to walk mode, she couldn't accidentally walk off the edge of a cliff, which was handy for getting around in places that were mostly cliffs (which was most of the game).

Personally, I'm not interested too much in this beyond a trinket. Let's however, see the fact that many players wanted it, and they got it.
I'm quite happy for them. Probably Role Players...
... In fact... I think I'll be obligated to saunter when dealing with the Artful Dodgers going forward. 
Well all I can say is they had better give me a free respec with this! I mean I want to "slot my stride" with all purples!

Different people. Now, if you really WANT animators to be poking around in the source code, we could arrange that, but I suspect the game would never compile again...|

See, it's this kind of stuff makes me wish i could suddenly grow to the size of King Kong, and then rampage politely around the major cities of the world shouting 'They made us a WALK toggle! Now stop playing all the other crap MMOs, dammit, and come join us'
Why did they do that? They didn't need to do that, did they? It's getting like I want to say 'Stop giving us stuff all the damn time!'
It's like a cornucopea of QoL, lately, this game.
Awesome.

Threads like these remind me of why I cancelled my CO subscription.
Thanks, devs!
Perhaps eventually you'll just get rid of the inherent and give 'Walk' it's own key option.
