I've encountered the "disappearing chest" event in another local. It seems to happen in places where the map changes (usually halfway down a bending corridor). I don't think the game likes you to carry things from one map segment to another.

I noticed this in the Crypt, when I was trying to carry a chest down to the warrior's path (?) to attempt to jam the grate with it. Every time I'd turn the corner to the new map segment, the chest vanished from my arms, only to be lying there on the ground back in the map segment I left. Interestingly, you can't see the chest in front of you until you hit that segment - then it just appears ...poof! I also noticed this in the Pyramid, trying to carry a chest (or something) across the threshold of one of the map segments there.

I can't remember if this happened patched or unpatched. Anyone care to experiment?
