Actually what can be pickpocketed from other characters differs from what one gets from killing them. Quest items are always dropped by characters when killed, but as to other items it seems that they are only dropped from time to time. If one pickpockets a longtooth for its hide one is pretty sure to get it. The same goes for crabs, bark horrors, and mostly everything else. But if one kills them it is pretty random whether they drop all things in their inventory or not.
