Thanks for the response. When I threw the trident, I was aiming high in the sky at some phantoms. I think maybe I happened to throw it the moment the Horseman Trap appeared near me, but I didn't notice it until several seconds after the trident had disappeared. In any case, there was no explanation as to why it didn't return. 

This evening (2 days later irl) I was fooling around in the End under the home portal, and lo and behold! My trident had appeared in my inventory! If a moderator did it, thanks a bunch, but if that just happened as a game mechanic, it's pretty fascinating. I assume it returned to my inventory when I entered the end from the overworld. I'm sure it wasn't there before I went.
