brake pedal switch (brake light) and...?

Hey there
I'm tinkering with my pedal assembly. My brake pedal has two plastic "buttons" that it pushes against. One is wired up (brake lights), so that you push on the brake pedal, the circuit opens, brake lights turn on. There is one other plastic... gizmo there, another button, but it isn't plugged into anything.
.
.
What is it for, and why is it there, unplugged?
Thanks
