  I have done it and it works just fine with emphasis being placed on "small". 
Most regular screwdrivers will be too big. You will need to go to the micro 
size or jewelers screwdriver, or use an awl.

Not tried it myself yet, but removing the switch and using a small screwdriver
to position the piston sounds the sanest method to me.  As I recall, the book
method is to bleed first one side and then the other until the light goes out.
