I would install a piece of trim to cover the door latch / lock holes. If installing trim around the door make sure the trim is wide enough to support the trim. Paint white to match door trim. Install the drywall first and then the trim will cover the edge of the drywall.

The finished door frame would still stick out into the room by some amount though right?

Correct. You could trim the door by butting the trim up against the door frame instead of on top of the frame. If you get thicker trim no one will every notice (except you).
