Default Question about trans. mount

Gentlemen,
The dealer says my transmission mount is broken, and is not a big deal, but I might notice a vibration. My question is: would I notice this vibration while driving? Or only at idle? I ask because I notice a small vibration at about 1800 rpm, or about 50 miles an hour. No vibration at idle, none. Any ideas??? 1998 LS.
Thanks!

I found this through the fault of the previous owners of my LS... get the trans mount changed as soon as possible!

They kept driving the car with a cracked mount to the point where it got really bad and ended up destroying the driveshaft joint. After I bought the car, it got even worse, so I had to replace the whole driveshaft and now I'll be installing the trans mount sometime this week.
