my video module add video size and lenght to links in 4.7
(example: http://www.windsmpeg.tk/video+type/full+video)
they are only simple text and reading hook_link original
documentation I was not able to understand that I can also add simple
text.

The documentation on hook_link doesn't mention that having a title
without an href will be themed without running through a l() call. This
is a useful fact to know, and is contrary to the current documentation.

+1 Original documentation is really confused and incorrect.

For us following along at home - why is this useful to know? (example?)

People porting custom 4.7 modules that used non-link links to show
summary statistics and such.
