I'm not quite sure what you mean?  HTB itself dequeues at a rate limited 
pace. However, by combining several HTB classes, each with a different 
priority and using the tc/mark to filter certain traffic into each 
bucket you will achieve what you want I think?

I'm sure wondershaper and all the other example scripts have this kind 
of thing setup as well?

However, the problem I think with the "weighting" is that it's not 
really designed to be used like this.  The idea is that each class 
limits traffic to it's stated bandwidth and only the excess is shared 
based on priority...  

I didn't know there was a WRR module though?  Where did you find it?

Perhaps you could describe the real problem a little more and someone 
might have a better way for you to do this
