You should be able to set the `DeleteBeforeReplace` resource option to do this: <https://pkg.go.dev/github.com/pulumi/pulumi/sdk/v3/go/pulumi#DeleteBeforeReplace>

Would you recommend to set it once to do this replacement and then remove it? Because generally I wouldn’t want this behavior, it’s just this one time as I do the renaming.

Conceptually I just want something like a `pulumi stack rename resource &lt;old name&gt; &lt;new name&gt;`

Yes.

As far as I know, there’s no current support for this.
