That's exactly what the PRIO qdisc does. In combination with HTB and SFQ, 
it can be quite powerful, as low priority connections will completely 
starve as long as there are higher priority packets to be sent.

However, PRIO does no bandwidth limiting at all (has to be done by HTB or 
similar), and does not provide connection-based fairness (has to be done 
by SFQ or similar), if you want to avoid one SSH session taking all the 
bandwidth from the other.
