I did not immediately realise what your meant by the term.  I see that
the input is not a subgroup (as suggested, to me at least, by the word
"coset") but actually a factor e of q-1, and the cosets you return are
orbits under mulkplication by x^e where x is a multiplcative generator
(the result being independent of the choice of generator).

How about "multiplcative_orbits"?  But someone who uses this
constructions should have a say.
