I have the need for this as well. I can confirm that it's supported in AWS via console or CLI. Would it require creating the buckets without the replication options in the aws_s3_bucket resource, and then having Terraform update the buckets after-the-fact in order to set the replication configuration? Is this a pattern that is used for other resources in Terraform?
