I don't understand why you would think a multi-step web form isn't  
like a dialog box.  I've seen plenty of non-web based forms that look 
similar to web forms.  You fill in stuff, you look at it, you press 
some type of button to send it somewhere.  Why does it matter if it 
is web/dialog.

Just thinking like a user ;)
