Are there examples showing
a.) how to set tooltip for CoolItem, and
b.) how to enable and disable a CoolItem?

Btw tried

coolItem.getControl().setEnabled( false );

but getControl returns null....

You need to setControl() to something in order for it not to return null.

You can't disable a CoolItem. Since CoolItems can't really be selected
(like a button or a table), then I'm not sure what disabling one would do.
You can disable the CoolBar.
