I usually indicate remote login by changing background colour. However, changing also the icon on-the-fly for this purpose is an interesting use case. I'm considering whether to add such a feature. Note, however, that it's not likely to work if mintty is embedded in ConEmu. Also, there is a design issue to solve: As absolute pathnames may not be too useful when addressed remotely, maybe another resource class should be added (in addition to themes, sounds, lang/localization). What do others think?
