No it won't be patched. NPCs have crushed chests forever.

Anyone ever have a chest disappear after the npc walks over it?

Yup. Even at 99.9 I couldn't open some paragon chests. It wouldn't even let me try. It just said "You have no idea how to manipulate this lock" or something. Then once I hit GM, I could attempt them. Even then the failure rate was low. I think it was a poison elemental paragon and a balron paragon chest (poison ele chest surprised me).

Actually poison paragon chest is only level 4, but it should be level 5 for how difficult they are to kill.

It should be, its the only spawn in a level 6 map that does not drop a level 5 chest. Pretty lame!

Does work. Good idea to drop chest in front of mob while under stealth tho. Done this many times (if I wasn't bothered about the colour of the chest). Best go somewhere quite, west of minoc moon gate for example. Plenty of ogres/ettins there to trample them down. Then u can just grab the contents while still remaining hidden.
