I won't run out of write iops when I have ssd journal in place. I know that I can use the dual root method from Sebastien's web site, but I thought the 'storage class' feature is the way to solve this kind of problem.

It will also only work reliably if you use a single level tree
structure with failure domain "host". If you want say, separate
data center failure domains, you need extra steps to make sure a
SSD host and a HDD host do not get selected from the same DC.
I have done such a layout so it is possible (see my older posts) but you need to be careful when you construct the additional trees that are needed in order to force the correct elections.
In reality however, even if you force all reads to the SSD using
primary affinity, you will soon run out of write IOPS on the HDDs.
To keep up with the SSD's you will need so many HDDs for an
average workload that in order to keep up performance you will not
save any money.

You can't mix HDDs and SSDs in a server if you want to use such a rule.
The new selection step after "emit" can't know what server was selected previously.

Add to the info, I have a slightly modified rule to take advantage of the new storage class.
rule ssd-hybrid {
id 2
type replicated
min_size 1
max_size 10
step take default class ssd
step chooseleaf firstn 1 type host
step emit
step take default class hdd
step chooseleaf firstn -1 type host
step emit
}

I've set up the rule according to the doc, but some of the PGs are still being assigned to the same host.
http://docs.ceph.com/docs/master/rados/operations/crush-map-edits/
rule ssd-primary {
ruleset 5
type replicated
min_size 5
max_size 10
step take ssd
step chooseleaf firstn 1 type host
step emit
step take platter
step chooseleaf firstn -1 type host
step emit
}
