Designating any party in a list of parties as Controller

Questions
1

Hi,

I have a template with a list of parties. How can I allow any one of those parties to be able to exercise a choice, and pass that party to the resulting contract?

Example below:

template MyTemplate
  with 
    operator: Party 
    contacts : [Party]
    name: Text
  where 
    signatory operator 
    observer contacts 

    controller any one of the contacts can
      DoSomething: ContractId SomeProposal 
        with 
          newName : Text
        do 
          create SomeProposal with name = newName, operator, (contact who exercised the choice) 

template SomeProposal
  with 
    operator: Party 
    name: Text 
    contact : Party 
  where 
    signatory contact

If there is another way to accomplish these things instead, that’s welcome too.

Thanks!

Can you do something like this using the dynamic choice construct?

   choice DoSomething : ContractId SomeProposal
     with
       contact : Party
       newName : Text
     controller contact
        do
          assertMsg "is not a contact" $ contact `elem` contacts
          create SomeProposal with name = newName, operator, contact
