I do not know if you understood the meaning of what Andrei said.

At least "nope" is a wrong statement.

If you read
| $ cat /etc/X11/Xsession.options 
| # $Id: Xsession.options 189 2005-06-11 00:04:27Z branden $
| #
| # configuration options for /etc/X11/Xsession
| # See Xsession.options(5) for an explanation of the available options.
| allow-failsafe
| allow-user-resources
| allow-user-xsession
| use-ssh-agent
| use-session-dbus

Then you should know this is for /etc/X11/Xsession.

And browsing /etc/X11/Xsession indicate this script runs script files
under /etc/X11/Xsession.d/ with run-parts fashon.  The ssh-agent script
is just one of them.

So if you put a shell sourceable file in /etc/X11/Xsession.d/ after
90gpg-agent
90x11-common_ssh-agent
 but before
99x11-common_start
then that your set-up will not be reset by ssh-agent.

So name it like
  99x11-common_ssh-agent-environment

This is what Andrei ment while assuming you knew roughly how X starting
process works.

Good luck.
