Well, turns out the door latch issue wasn't nearly as involved as I thought it would be. I disassembled everything and was about to pull the outer door handle off. I was able to see that the screw for the weatherstripping was slightly rubbing against the top lever of the latch mechanism. It was keeping the latch open. Swapping to a screw with a narrower tip solved the problem.

What's interesting is that I've had the same screw in there for a while and it wasn't causing a problem until now. Either way, all seems to be well now.
