It seems to me that the most straightforward way to handle that would be to give the feedback on an incumbent to the incumbent. The way to handle confidentiality, I would expect, is to ask the person commenting for one of three instructions:

1) do not give this feedback to the incumbent
2) give this feedback to the incumbent in an anonymized form
3) give this feedback to the incumbent

And note that only (3) gives the incumbent the opportunity to discuss the feedback with the person that gave it. There is a part of me that wants to not offer (3), but I can imagine it might make some people comfortable sharing that would not otherwise be.
