Well, I've seen that happen with pedestrians when I past them on a bike, no matter how many times I say 'excuse me', so let's ban them as well.
If you are 'creeping' past, that's your problem. As has been said, many times on here, the best thing to do is alert the rider and horse with a gentle hello from some way away. 'Creeping' up on them is the sort of thing predators do.
If a rider then takes umbrage at you, I suspect it's because they are very perceptive, and have you down straight away for the moany git you are...
