That's exactly how I do it. I use a tiny eyeglass screwdriver. Don't do it in a dirty garage full of sawdust and wood scraps because you'll drop it for sure.

Another trick is to turn an open box on it's side and drape a cloth loosely over the opening so if/when the clip shoots off, the cloth absorbs the impact of the flying clip instead of letting it ricochet off to places unknown.
