Yes and no. The ssh man page mentions a set of variables which are
propagated (things like TZ, MAIL, PATH and some ssh specific stuff), and
then you may pre-set things in .ssh/environment. I don't know whether
Putty mimics this.
But then, all this behaviour can be disabled, server-side.
(Hmpf. Come to think of it, I _know_ my ssh propagates LANG as well,
although it isn't mentioned in the man page. Ah, I see: man page is
wrong. Which vars to send can be configured for the client as well).

Yes, the ideal would be to be able to query the terminal about its
current settings ("are you dark background?"). But the flexibility of
ssh would allow the users to solve the concrete Putty problem now, I
think.
