In an effort to reduce the number of low-importance y/n confirmation prompts in the game, make applying a lock pick or key scan the hero’s inventory, the floor underneath them, and 8 surrounding spaces for doors or containers that the tool can be used on. If there is only one such thing, automatically use the tool on that thing without prompting. If there are multiple, either prompt for each one in sequence or offer a menu of things to use the tool on.

This has a problem in that heroes may end up accidentally locking doors they want to go through. The problem may not be that important, since they can just unlock it again. Another suggestion is to make the map symbol for a locked door different from an unlocked one.

Something to prevent autounlock from automatically forcing a chest you want to open. This probably takes the form of a new option, either an “autoforce” boolean option or a new paranoid confirmation flag which would add a prompt (or turn the existing prompt into a “yes” confirmation) before you force a chest with autounlock.
