I need to fill in a combo with contacts,
these contacts depend of the service_id I get from the URL

I first define my own SingleSelectField class and define the
"update_params"

class ContactSelect(forms.SingleSelectField):

    def update_params(self, d):
        d['options']=tg.request.contact_list
        forms.SingleSelectField.update_params(self, d)
        return d

I use the tg.request.contact_list to initialize my list.
I have previously build this list in my controller

in my controller

    @expose('project.templates.monitor')
    def new(self, service_id, *args, **kwarg):
        ...
        tg.request.contact_list=get_contacts_for_service(service_id)
        ...
        return dict(
                  ....
                    )

This is simple and efficient but I dont like the way I do it !

- their could be a name conflict with other variable in tg.request.*
 maybe I could use another tg or pylon "container" to store my
contact_list ?
- The ContactSelect class is not very easy to package

Any better way ?
