Configure region outside of the CLI?

See original GitHub issue

It would be great if we could specify the region when configuring stacks, e.g.:

stacks:
  - name: app-us-west
    class_path: my_blueprints.App
    region: us-west
  - name: app-us-east
    class_path: my_blueprints.App
    region: us-east

(pinging @rouge8 since he opened this, and @troyready since he mentioned he was looking at this in #318):

I’m going to mark this as post-1.0. I’m working on trying to get 1.0 out, and I think this can wait till after that (though I don’t think it’ll take long). Let me know if you disagree!

This is something I want to tackle in the next ~month or so. I put together a little RFC for how I think this should work if anyone else has thoughts: https://github.com/remind101/stacker/wiki/RFC:-Profiles
