Well, not really a wobble, more like a bit of play between the bolt that attaches the der to the frame (RD-CH119), and the der body itself. If I wiggle it, the top of the cage next to the upper jocky wheel moves toward and away from the cogs by about 1mm. Is this normal to have this much play, and will it effect the shifting performance? It is a 9 speed Centaur, and it has been on the bike for about 2000 miles.

It may but the only way to find out is to try it. All rear derailleurs have some play there, even when new.

Yes. Same with the brand new Chorus derailleur I fitted.
