I would be uncomfortable with, 'a misty coincidence'.

yeah, me, too. a little, I guess. but I like the idea of "the mists" of coincidence. I agree with Rhubarb that coincidence itself is mysterious, and hence, could be metaphorically "misty".

this seemed to become a discussion on whether mist/fog is evaporation or condensation, and I felt that that lost the sense of the original question.
