Summary: 

NASA should hire you!  The shuttle DID actually wobble as the SRB
lost thrust for 12 seconds or so before the blast.  The 3 main
engines and the other SRB swiveled to maintain the proper trajectory.

Unfortunately, the crew members had no idea that this was happening.

This was read in today's LA Times.
