A dab of fingernail polish will work wonders.  It dries hard and thick 
enough to keep everything together nicely, and then when/if you need to 
remove the knob, it breaks away.  Glue, on the other hand, might be more 
permanent; some glues will hold so tightly that you risk damaging the 
switch when you try to remove the knob.

Or is this harmful? The toggle switch cap is intact and functional but wobbles a lot, as though part of the switch which resides inside the cap has broken. Can I pack it out a bit, glue it and carry on?
