It's a demanding task to get this right, especially as a track can loop
indefinitely. So if the user desires to go to, say, 75%, where is the
code supposed to jump then? I really don't know but Winamp (with
Oldsk00l plugin) and Modplug can do this rather smoothly and with
expected results. Probably they do not respect any loops and just use
the slider to navigate to the respective point in the pattern list to
start playing right there.
The special challenge here is that an instrument may keep playing from a
previous pattern (the self-looped samples I mentioned earlier), but if
you jump to the pattern at the selected position, the instrument is not
triggered to play again because that was done in the pattern before. So
the code has to look back a little, too, to make this perfect. Also the
playback speed (bpm) may be varied in the course of a pattern sequence
and if you skip to a pattern that relies on a set speed instead of
setting its own, you may find the part of the module playing too fast or
too slow.

Anyway, I'll see when I have more time for this matter.
