How do we know that? You're registering to the same switch device,
wouldn't the switch event notify the switch work in both the glue and
the core? Perhaps I'm missing something here, but is there some
mechanism that waits for the switch work from the glue to complete
before the core.

Ah ok, this seems like a better option.
