I don't know whether configfile and multiboot are documented in the
info pages (I find info unusable) but this is the upstream grub
manual:
http://www.gnu.org/software/grub/manual/html_node/index.html
I've just looked at the debian wiki's documentation and it's
surpringly sparse; unless I landed on the wrong page.
ubuntuforums.org has a very good documentation thread/sticky and the
arch and gentoo wikis have good documentation.
