I think that it's a good thing to provide documentation and tests for a new component along with some examples.
This gives the user more information and he will surely be happier seeing some working examples.
The tests are probably what users should do with the component from the sandbox, but this shouldn't exclude some primary tests for the components...

I think writing a wiki page containing some guidelines for new
components is a good thing. Maybe not named "requirements" but... I'd
like to see that new components should (or must) contain:

-documentation
-examples
-tests

I know it's a sandbox, but I am really +1 on that
