Oddly. my ToC's in epub format also allow me to go to a specific location (book, part, chapter, subchapter, etc.) whether using an inline or a pop-up ToC. The popup ToC is a lot handier since you don't need to flip back to the inline ToC. the same can be done in KF8/KFX.

As for percent over page numbers? I prefer percent but people complain that percent does not give you an idea of how much longer to finish the book. Say you are 60% completed in War and Peace and 60% completed in The Old Man and the Sea, it is going to take a titch longer to read 234,915 words compared to 10,800 words.
