Feature Request

Terraform recently introduced ephemeral resources. In the introduction, they explain:

Managing infrastructure often requires creating and handling sensitive values that you may not want Terraform to persist outside of the current operation. Terraform provides two tools for resources to manage data you do not want to store in state or plan files: the ephemeral resource block and ephemeral write-only arguments on specific resources.

It would be great to make the various API/application key resources available as ephemeral resources so operators can create or read API keys without storing them in Terraform state (i.e. to add them to vaults/secret management systems).
