Is it possible to migrate/move ElasticIP from standard scope to VPC scope in Amazon Web Services?
I have hundreds of domains pointing to particular EIP and it would be super-sweet if it was possible to attach it to the VPC and not to loose it.

As of 11/15/2016 this is possible! \o/\o/\o/
Now is possible move the Elastic IP to "EC2-VPC" scope or restore it to "EC2-Classic" scope.
Through the AWS Management Console:
Through the API (documentation):

You can now move the EIP from standard to vpc scope. Check out http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/elastic-ip-addresses-eip.html#migrating-eip

"When you allocate an EIP [within EC2-classic], it's for use only in EC2-Classic. When you allocate an EIP [within VPC], it's for use only in a VPC."
