2600 auto detection

The only way I see to switch quickly between 2600 and ColecoVision games is to physically disconnect the expansion module from the system. I'd like to change that.
What I have in mind is use of a reed switch to connect the 5 volt power line inside the expansion module whenever a 2600 game is plugged in. I also considered just adding in a toggle switch on the side of the module instead.

Is there anything else I'd need to disconnect? If I shut down the power to the expansion module, I don't expect the system would even know it was still hooked up.
