- Ability to supply a private key directly to the API to send funds without needing a My Wallet account.

The instructions for that:

You can now replace the guid in the send api (https://blockchain.info/api/api_send) with a Hex encoded private key.

$address = destination bitcoin address.
$amount = amount to send in satoshi.

So what happens to the amount remaining if I am sending less than the available input(s) used?  Is it returned back to that address from the private key?
