Only one problem.  Tc sees ip packets and ip packets contains ip addresses, 
not hostnames.  So you can't do this.
But I suppose you want to shape http / ftp?  You can try to setup a squid 
transparant proxy server and if I'm not mistaken, you can patch squid so you 
can use tc to shape the squid traffic.
