Actually I did the same thing (included party controller in my own
controller), however, when I try to see party profile (from the screen in my
'his' component) it gives me the exception like following:
Could not find screen with name [CommonPartyDecorator] in class resource
[component://his/widget/op/CommonScreens.xml]
This is because ${parameters.mainDecoratorLocation} in my his component is
different than it is in Party component. And when the screen in Party
components try to find CommonPartyDecorator, it couldn't find because it
makes no sense in my 'his' component.
