I second this. I'd switch over from RDS to Aurora in a heartbeat if AWS built a postgres frontend for it.

Curious what is the key feature of Aurora on Postgres that you'd want?

PostGIS compatibility.

Unless you mean that the other way around, in which case I don't know what key features of Aurora I'm missing (besides price & performance).

Aurora is part of RDS. It's just a different DB instance type.
