It would seem guards and people have no problem whatsoever when you blast down their door/break open their chests and cupboards with a flame dart, but as soon as you lockpick or smash it with your weapon they do.
Is this a bug?

Re: Busting locked objects with spells not causing agro npcs
I suspect it's more of a "oopsie" than a bug. Like the "store your stuff in someone's private container & they attack you when you remove your own stuff but leave theirs inside" situation. No matter how much you might beta test, there's always something one of the "teeming millions" will do that never crossed your mind.
