This approach would somehow require the document URL to play proxy to
forward submits to your form, which is not possible and rather complex
(basically portal-like behaviour).

If you want to have a form completely styled like the rest of the Wiki,
together with navigation tree and all, then have a look at the guestbook
sample which does just that.
