Description

### Name of the resource

AWS::RDS::DBInstance

### Resource name

_No response_

### Description

A new feature announced at re:invent was the ability to do blue-green deployments in RDS. This sounds very useful; but appears to be unsupported in cloudformation at this time based off the documentation (see link). Are there any plans to include it?

### Other Details
