Vibration/pulsing in 3rd gear on decel.

Vibration/pulsing in 3rd gear on decel.
I am getting a pulsing/vibration through the shifter handle in 3rd gear on deceleration only. I can be driving at 40mph, have it in 3rd gear, then remove my foot from the gas pedal and let the car slow down, and I’ll get this pulsing through the shifter through the whole time the car is slowing. The pulsing goes in-line with vehicle speed, so the pulsing slows as the car slows. Doesn’t happen in any other gear. There is no abnormal noise, and to be honest the shifter doesn’t even appear to be moving, it’s only if I have my hand on it that I can notice the issue. I can push on the shifter towards the dash and fight/stop the pulsing.
I have a 2004 Mustang GT with 45K miles, I’ve owned it since 38K miles, and I started noticing this “issue” somewhere in between buying the car and now, so it might have been there the whole time. My real questions are 1) should I be concerned, and 2) what are likely causes for these symptoms? Is this just inherent of the T3650 transmission? Any help/feedback is much appreciated!

I actually think it's s pretty good transmission, people run 400 to 500 HP through them all the time--here's a good article describing the 3650 in some detail.
