I'm personally content with a different colored prompt for remote
machines. This is taken care of in my .zshrc file with something like
this pseudo code:
case ${HOST} in
(host1) PS1=<substitute your favorite prompt here> ;;
(host2) PS1=<different colored prompt here> ;;
esac
I don't want to take the focus of this discussion off of zsh, but if
you're using OS X and Terminal, you can set up a Terminal window to
have the characteristics that you like (i.e. color of background), then
save it as a .term file which you launch only when you want to ssh to a
particular host. You can even set it so that just by launching a
particular .term file, the ssh command will be carried out for you.

Hope this helps.
