I think you're correct, but I think there's an easier way.

Like I said, this is from memory -- I may be thinking of a different connector (I 'd have to check), so I may be totally wrong. However, if the catch operates the way I think it does (and your image suggests it does), if you poke a small screwdriver down the topmost slot, as I mentioned earlier, you can release it that way. I think what you have to do though it push the screwdriver into the slot and then push the screwdriver handle in the direction or the wires (ie make the tip of the screwdriver move outwards) in order to lift the catch.
