Container Maybe-not-a-Bug?

So, I've had a thing happen where I was meaning to put stuff in a container in my inventory, and it put it in a similar container on the ground instead. I don't know if this qualifies as a bug.

However, I was wondering if maybe it could be made so that when you put a thing in a container, it checks your inventory for the container keyword before checking the ground?

Like if I have a treasure chest in my inventory, it would put the item in that, instead of the treasure chest that's on the ground, by default.
