It works better, but not if you want to create a view and make
"select * from some_view where group_id=3" :-(

Do you mean the second query will work on 7.3?
select
   group_id,
   user_id,
   a/sum_a as percent_a,
   b/sum_b as percent_b
from
   users U,
   (select
     sum(a) as sum_a,
     sum(b) as sum_b
    from users where group_id=U.group_id) X
where group_id=3;
