Knock out limits on all difficulties.... sometimes I just want to blackjack everything.at least leave the KO limit off the easy setting.

Having to do sonething REALLY stupid that I would never want to do. e.g.
"Hey, there's a really evil jeweled mcguffin and if you look at it all hell breaks loose with a flaming bag of shit. Let's steal it!"
Can I skip that today? I don't feel like an apocalypse right now. I have gas.

His pet peeve simply describes one aspect of my most recent mission very accurately (so much so if I wonder my mission frustrated nuckinfutzcat and inspired his post---but maybe I'm just being ego-centric).
The primary "MacGuffin" is an evil gem which, when looked upon, makes all hell break loose---and you need to steal it.

Well, there have been lots of other missions where you have to steal some apparently valuable trinket, but where it turned out to be a source of evil. Even Thief 1 draws a lot from this idea, the trinket being the Eye gemstone Garrett steals... with lots of consequences he will face later on.

I can't think of any other examples where merely *looking* at the gem in question has any gameplay affect. But perhaps I'm overlooking some.

Looking (or sometimes not looking) at someone/something in a mission rarely changes anything, you're right with that. I was generalizing the description of this pet peeve a bit.
