I guess it depends on why it is stuck. You would be concerned if it failed because it is shorted. If it gets hot and/or melted then it would be a issue. People leave the powered switch turned on all the time on their machines.

Pretty much the switch is not much more than unplugging the power cable so you can just unplug the cable to accomplish the same thing.

You never want to use the switch or unplug the computer without shutting it down in the OS first.
