`icicle-imenu' does what you want. If you want something similar, look at its
code, including the code for its more generic parent function, `icicle-search'.

Basically, use the imenu regexp to parse the buffer, giving you hit strings and
their locations. Use an alist of such hit+location pairs as the COLLECTION arg
for `completing-read'. Given the chosen hit string, look up the location and go
there.
