What would line numbers offer over a page percentage counter?

Secondly, can you point us to an existing implementation in comparable
software to indicate how this might work?  I've noticed MS Word has
line numbering but it doesn't strike me as being anymore use than
percentages or similar.  Is Word a good example of what you have in
mind?
