A common complaint I am hearing about z3c.form, for example, is that I should 
use the ZCML more in my doctests, so that the doctests contain more example 
on how to use ZCML to create z3c.form pages.

At work I have started taking this approach more and more and it makes tests 
actually more readable and provides better documentation to consumers of the 
libraries/code.
