If either is followed by the word "choose", it is proper.

I do believe proper English would be:
Those who do whatever... (becuase you are referring to people)
Had you been referring to an inanimate object, such as a car, you would say:
Those that go faster than whatever....

I actually think it depends on the verb...
those who chant makes more sense than those who do chanting ( ?...see, sounds funny)
And then there are those who do knitting as opposed to those who knit ( I would choose the 2nd)
I guess it really comes down to your sentence you are constructing...

It depends on the use, but you could use both.
ex: Those who pertain to this question.
ex: For those whom pertain to the question.
ex: There are those that assume they know the answer.

Those who....."those" refers to people, therefore use "who", "that" refers to inanimate objects, concepts, etc, not people.

You're talking about people, so it's who.
