Yeah, we had a PR bomb recently in a way that "plan" could have *trivially* caught had it used any of the "Get*" APIs from the cloud provider to ask about the current situ.

I appreciate that "the map is not the terrain," and that "plan" is speculating about a future configuration of the world, but come on -- if "terraform plan" is going to require _live credentials_ to run, and then only use those to enumerate the active regions, what are we even doing here?!
