A late response...

For mask changeclearsize() seems not to act on distance of mask relief
to copper but on total relief size. So changeclearsize(selected,8,mil)
will not make the relief 8 mil larger than pad (as desired by me)

For copper clearance changeclearsize() works fine.

To adjust mask DJ's solution seems to work perfect:
