There are latching, polarized (LP) 0.1in connectors. However, they aren't self-crimping, but practice helps! Also, I've found the Hansen LP housings and inserts easier to put together than the standard ones for some reason (I can just crimp with the Hansen cheap crimper and they slide right in most of the time), although I'm sure the correct solution is to buy the "real" crimper ($$$).
