Fixing a hole in the door is going to cost more than paying someone to come out and install a proper pass through. A more permanent solution that running extension cords should be set up though.

I don't think people understand how difficult it is to mix up pre-mixed mortar or mastic for joint compound. The texture and smell is different for each one. A professional making that mistake is VERY concerning.

Pre-mixed mortar or mastic only share a color with joint compound. Aside from that they have all wildly different textures and smells. It is hard to mix them up if you've actually used them a few times.

OP doesn't appear to want to run any new wire. Switching after the GFCI would require new wire. Swapping in a breaker solves this problem. However not being an electrician I don't know if swapping in a GFCI breaker could cause any other issues.
Given that OP is asking such a question I definitely wouldn't recommend they swap a breaker. They should 100% contact an electrician.
Edit: Just realized what you were getting at. Assuming OP could find an outlet that comes before the switch/outlet combo he could 100% swap that with a GFCI outlet. Again given the way this question is being asked with no additional information OP should call an electrician.
