Gluing a spindle taper into a spindle sounds like a truly horribly idea. (I'd
be more worried about it letting go when you didn't want it to, than trying to
get it out later if you did want to remove it, although that also may prove
problematic.)
The drive lugs are usually removable/replaceable. Maybe you could make new
drive lugs that also positively engage the tool holder to retain it. Something
like a longer T shape that would capture the tool holder flange. (Personally
I'd do every thing I could to fix the spindle properly though.)

Todd has it right.
A little twist would be to make the "T" shaped retainer more of an "L".
Loosen a screw, rotate retainer, change tool, rotate retainer, retighten
screw.
Best practice would still be repair properly.
