I wasn't aware of any change to stealing from PCs.
IC, Shopkeepers have to protect themselves from theft or they go out of business. From the steal helpfile (which was updated after your post):
Be aware that many shopkeepers in areas with large thief populations have become very good at detecting, and protecting themselves from, thieves.
OOC, we'd like the economy to work a little more effectively and it's hard to do that when every popular shopkeeper is without money to buy things due to thievery. Shopkeepers can be stolen from, but there's now a risk involved that may or may not exceed the value of the reward to you.
Hope that offers some insight.
