You could use a script. e.g.
#!/bin/sh
# cdlocate.sh
cd $(dirname $(locate $1 | head -n 1))
The head -n 1 will avoid it falling over when locate returns more than
one hit, although it will still break if there are no hits. Maybe,
although I haven't tested it, something like
FILE=$(locate "$*" | head -n 1))
[[ "${FILE}" ]] && cd $(dirname "${FILE}")
