Yes, it is used for all.
You must be having a problem with your ssh client and or sshd server.
It works fine for me when I do
ssh -L 10873:samba.org:873 shell1.sourceforge.net
and in another window do
rsync rsync://localhost:10873
or
rsync --port 10873 localhost::
and other people have reported that it works OK for them too.
