It always tells you the most likely category, but you can redefine the
output to only trigger if the most likely category really dominates the
results.

With two categories, this is reasonable.  For a dozen it is much more
debatable.

This works with the SGD classifiers as well and I have seen this used in a
multi-level classifier.
