Exactly. The dynamic rule creates a queue with the selected weight for each
of the matches from the mask.

Yes. This is a bit more complicated though. Currently it is not possible to
have "traffic" match more than one rule, but this can be circumvented by
unsetting net.inet.ip.fw.one_pass. I have a slight feeling that shaping more
than once using queues can have strange side effects though.
