This sounds as if the controller would have / need to have a direct BGP 
session to each of the target routers.

Which makes the use of BGP as transport protocol even more a bad choice.

If you have point-to-point connections anyway, do not choose a transport
protocol that is built for "distribute information to devices many hops 
away".


Do not stuff BGP with more stuff that is not related to "transport of
routing information".  Vendors are having a hard time building robust and
interoperable BGP implementations already today.
