Description of bug
Controller accounts are being deprecated. I want to use a proxy account to declare intent to validate, just like I would previously have used a separate controller.
I have a bonded account not currently registered as validator.
When using the
staking/validate
extrinsic by proxy, I get a "NotController" error.Previously, this action was allowed when the controller was separate from the stash. Therefore, it should also be allowed here.
I have verified that the account has the proxy set as "Staking Proxy".
Steps to reproduce
On kusama, run the 'staking/validate' extrincic for an account with the staking proxy. It fails with "Error: NotController"
