Yes, that's right. Just pull up on the cap and it should come off. You might want to hold
the base of the tube, just to keep it from disconnecting from the top of transmission.
I replaced my fill tube with a dipstick. I had the original fill tube in my hands this
afternoon and pulled the cap off. No need to depress the little tabs.

So just to make sure that I understand correctly, the little tabs do
NOT need to be depressed or pushed in to get the cap off. I simply
need to pull up a little harder to overcome the friction of the
o-rings and the pressure that the tabs are pushing against the fill
tube.
Obviously I am a little hesitant to pull on the cap until I am
convinced that it will come off without breaking something.
Thanks again-

As mentioned the sealing ring is not crucial, as long as the double
o-ring cap is in place and tight.
WARNING: Be careful when removing the 3/4" hose from tube after
filling tranny. You must hold the tube IN while you pull / twist /
wiggle the hose off. My first change resulted in me pulling the tube
part way out while trying to get the hose off. Fortunately I had
cleaned the area well, but... I am now more cautious when removing the
fill hose. It would ruin your day to pull the tube out and have crud
fall into your fresh fluid.
