Hi There

There are only certain AWS-Specific parameters that are supported in a drop-down list.  AWS::RDS::DBInstanceIdentifier is not supported.  You are correct though that ec2 instance is one of the supported parameters which explains why it worked for you in that case.  You can use a custom list of AllowedVaulues for your RDS instances but you would need to keep it updated.

See this URL for the full list of supported AWS-Specific Parameter types
