Can't slip anything past you, can I ... ;-)
If you're going to use the ZIF intermediate socket then you'll have to use a
cover with a cutout as shown in the DVI manual P.9, or no cover at all.
But if you're not going to use the ZIF socket (since you'll be (un)plugging at
the other end), then there's enough clearance to use the normal cover as shown
below; there is a corresponding recess in the case bottom for the cable.
I suspect that was the original idea until folks started to break pins on the
DIP connector, and they supplied the ZIF socket and notched cover as the
solution.

Very nice, I need to find my velcro. The M100 to T102 upgrade :)
Did you cut the cover? Or is sufficiently flexible to bend over the cable?

my review of the docs for the DVI. But yes that is a pain.

Yes, the DVI came with a ZIF socket.
Here's my solution, using a bit of Velcro:
