I have make blind rolls for that sort of thing.The rogue said he wanted to search for traps, so I asked him to make an Investigation check. I didn't bait him or twist his arm; he asked to do it all on his own.
It would have been different if I had asked him to make the check, or if I had said "Hey, would you like to search that chest for traps? It looks awful suspicious just sitting there." But I didn't. I just told the group that there was a chest at the foot of this altar they had found, and he immediately went all Indiana Jones on it.
Plus he interrupted my room description to make that announcement, and that always irks me when players do that. So I was already unsympathetic to his plight.
