This is like the gift that keeps on giving!
I solved my door handle problem through an exasperating series of trials and errors, I finally found a solution that has been working for more than a year (no, really). Along with a rather weak clip, I lodged a piece of felt into the gap and drove the concoction home by gently tapping the handle with a rubber mallet. I know it sound bizarre, but it seems really seated in there now and hasn't budged one bit since I did my magic!
As I always say, if you keep banging your head against a wall, sooner or later you will successfully put it through. Ignore the throbbing headache ...
