well, I really want people to fill their name and email in, but I
don't want to force them, so I'm just presenting them with the text

You mean, in step4 ? something different than the back button ?

Do you want to get rid of the last two paragraphs:

  Please take the time to review this report and take action on the
  problems reported. If you have questions, please notify us at
  wai-report@w3.org, so that we can re-evaluate your page.

  Note. These comments were made by someone who visited your Web site

there are important I think.
