 ok that worked.  just uploading a video here:

 turns out that there's a feature i'd not used before, called
"conditional rules".  you can specify that *if* GND meets HDMI Group,
clearance rules shall be different.  ordinarily you have to forcibly
set the *entire* GND plane to specific clearances (to ALL objects), or
the *entire* HDMI group to specific clearances (to ALL objects)...
this "conditional" rule does the trick.

 richard i go over it in the video but i believe the layer... 5
keepout needs to also be extended under the layer 6 (blue, bottom)
tracks leading to the VIAs that jump up to the DC3 connector pads.
also i believe that i should be adding some tracks (pink) which,
particularly if there is to be a hole in layer 5 underneath, should be
around a 5 mil clearance, to match the fact that it's swapping
vertical distance for horizontal distance, what do you think?
