I can not speak to the heritage of the CoolKey applet[1] before Red Hat got it 
from Netscape, but if they were very related I would suspect checking out the 
code for both CoolKey and Muscle[2] and using diff would let you see where 
they are still related. Also getting the sources might provide you with a 
README file or History file which would perhaps include a pre-Red Hat history.
I believe they are fairly different now though.  And the websites for each do 
a poor job describing what the capabilities provided by each is, so we are 
almost all in the position of `Read the source` if you want the info.
