I understand what you are saying, and agree with that. What I am saying is that when I use sshd running as a srvany service, I don't get my user specific environment variable definitions picked up (the ones I define from the windows gui). I have to also define them in ~/.ssh/environment. I was just asking if there was a way to avoid this extra step.
