Yes it does support it.

Say you have 4 classes, and 1024kbps of bandwidth. If you set it so 
that the rate/ceiling of the classes was :
  1 1000/1024
  2 8/1024
  3 8/1024
  4 8/1024

Then class 1 could use virtually all your bandwidth, and if it did so 
then classes 2-4 would get very little. But if class one is NOT using 
it all, then the other classes can use it - eg if there were no other 
traffic, then class 3 could use all 1024kbps.

I do this at work, and it works "very nicely".
