If the with modifier is used on a non-input document reference, the compiler returns the following error message:

rego_type_error: test_rule: with keyword target must be input

This can be a bit confusing for users. It would be good to include the resolved target term in the error message.

When the with modifier is used to override the entire input document, it'll be much clearer if the input document has been mocked out inside the module.
