Coincidentally, I watched a youtube video from bowenaero.com 'Project Kitfox' today and he addressed this exact issue. He's using a latch that provides 2 positions, fully closed, or door held a 1/2 out open but still latched. I thought this was an elegant solution to this problem.

You can watch the video here; https://youtu.be/MUeRMN9m90Q?t=266. It will start at 4:26 into the video where he starts his discussion of this latch. Might be worth more research.
