Not the worst idea, though I'd paint it black to make it look like part of the framing for the gate.

Or actually make it from metal and make it adjustable.

that's what i was going to recommend. but the same thing could be achieved by swapping out the top hinge with one that had more adjustment on it, if its not to far out of plumb. this would be only a temporary fix if the underlying issues of why the pillar is subsiding are not addressed, but it would by time to sock away the $$$$ to fix it all properly
