Once pulled back, they should stay in place as they engaged in the slots, and you should be able to lift the trailer off the ends of the QR skewer by lifting with one hand at the yoke where it joins the trailer frame. To do this successfully really needs to have the trailer lightly loaded or completely unloaded.
OK, actually I can see what you're saying and I guess I could do that, but to unload it I need to stabilise it in some fashion -- either putting it directly on the ground (i.e. unhitched), or using the other ideas I've picked up further up in this thread. The ensemble is so damn unstable with a load that getting it all stabilised and/or unloaded quickly at the campsite seems like a must.
