How well documented should tests be? It seems like they ought to be pretty self-explanatory, otherwise they are probably too complex and are prone to breakage themselves.
On another note, this is kind of nice to see...

As you say ;). I prefer narrative functional tests, myself; simple unit tests can be good, too. I try to avoid complicated tests, although complicated setup/teardown is more ok.
