Hrm...  OK interesting.  But it would be nice to be able to allow
users to change their region (like once we add this feature, an
existing user might want to switch now that he/she can).

In which case, we'd need to be able to support that somehow...  Like
maybe a button 'Change Region' in the preferences which would note the
drawback/advantages.  And we'd probably need to include the region in
the autogenerated bucket name too then, unless Amazon lets us change
the region on an existing bucket (even knowing that would wipe the
data).
