It certainly can be an issue, Graham, and I cannot think how many times I have stressed this on various forums, such as this one, over the years. Every time, I am laughed off the stage for making this point, but one of these days these guys will be laughing on the other sides of their faces. I have seen horrendous damage to expensive kilts caused by the wearer's insistence on using sporran chains instead of straps.

The only occasions I will wear a chain is when wearing my heavy silver and sealskin formal Evening Dress Sporran. A silver chain with Evening Dress is as traditional as a Sgian Dubh!
