So, it had started previously under lxde?

No, it isn't a systemd thing.  It a user process started when/by the starting of the
desktop.

I don't really know what you mean by having "ssh-agent running all the time" or why
you need to have it....  I have all of my rsa public keys in the authorized_keys
files of all of my accounts so that I can ssh to any system without supplying a
password or pass phrase.  In all of those cases there is no ssh-agent running on the
system to where I am connecting.
