This idea found its way into the BitGraph mouse package.  Someone
suggested it to me whose name is lost in the mists of time:

  (defun bg-move-by-percentage ()
    "Go to location in buffer that is the same percentage of the
  way through the buffer as the BitGraph mouse's X position in the window."

I'd still like to see all the mouse support (bg, sun, x) integrated
better - there ought to be one mouse library (there sort of is) with
all the mouse functions, and one dispatch method, etc.  Volunteers?

... or hang the function on term-setup-hook, which is evaluated after
the terminal-dependent initialization is done.

  term-setup-hook's value is my-x-button-init

  Documentation:
  Function to be called after loading terminal-specific lisp code.
  It is called with no arguments.  You can use this to override the
  definitions made by the terminal-specific file.
