You can create a 2nd provider instead of updating the 1st. Then manually replace the 1st provider with the 2nd provider (via stack export/import). Laborious, but I've done it and it did prevent a heap of delete/creates. Which for my RDS and AD instances would have been very, very bad...

ouch, that's a lot of work for a "code refactor". but good to know that's how it's done. I'll just stick with setting `aws:region` in the config file for now. Thanks!

I did a global search/replace using VSCode and it didn't stuff it up.. it was tense, since I felt there was a risk of things going badly wrong, but it was unfounded. Worked without a hitch. Took about 5 minutes, though I did do about 45 minutes of manual code review (which found no problems).
