Do you have any documentation on the new commands: signrawtransaction, sendrawtransaction. Why is the word ‘raw’ being used here?

These names are taken from the Bitcoin Core API. You can read the documentation about them for Bitcoin Core here:

https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Raw_Transactions

And then note the differences as explained in the MultiChain docs:

http://www.multichain.com/developers/json-rpc-api/

Over time of course the MultiChain docs will become less dependent on the bitcoin ones.
