What is the best method for un-mating a NeXLev connector?

Example using a 300-signal module would require about 20-22 lbs. maximum un-mating force. This could be accomplished by pulling on the daughtercard. The connector can also be pivoted out, by separating one end of the daughtercard, creating a lever effect. Another option would be to use jackscrews to un-mate the connectors, which could double as standoffs to retain the cards at the proper spacing.
