When the explosion comes before you open your credit card statement

From Reuters:

DALLAS - A Texas woman was arrested on Wednesday after a pink dye pack attached to money she is suspected of stealing from a bank exploded when she took the cash to a different bank to open a new account, police said.

You've seen the junior versions of these attached to merchandise in high-end clothing stores. When will the "exploded antitheft ink pack" look, whether applied during an actual shoplifting event or to unsullied legally-purchased clothing, become the Next Hot Thing? And when it does, do savvy retailers cashing in on it protect their merchandise with little exploding dry-cleaning fluid tags?
