In the new ACR, the adjustment brush doesn't hold settings from the last time I used it, like the old one did. I don't want to have to save an adjustment brush every time I want to make the same selective adjustments on a few images. Am I missing a setting?

The adjustment brush should be seperate from the mask menu to reduce clicks. It's also very frustrating that I have to reselect the brush tool when I go to the next picture. This slows the workflow.

My comment relates to ACR 14 and the new mask options.

Specifically which 'adjustment brush'?

If I configure a brush to a certain size and feather (tried spot healing), use it, click done and go back to the raw, the size and feature IS sticky.

"Specifically which 'adjustment brush'?"

The only adjustment brush.

The solution, iirc correctly, was to uncheck the new, and by default checked, button at the bottom of the adjustment brush sliders, which is "Reset Sliders Automatically".

The still annoying thing, is that if I use the adjustment brush, and then hit Z to zoom or something, even thought the adjustment brush tab is open, I have to switch to another tool and back to the adjustment brush tab to get the brush back.

Again no; not at all happening on this end. The Brush (after typing K key) size and feather ARE STICKY.

Try a Reset of the Camera Raw preferences:
Hold down the Command key and select Photoshop > Preferences > Camera Raw (macOS) or hold down the Ctrl key and select Edit > Preferences > Camera Raw (Windows).
Click Yes in the dialog that asks "Delete the Camera Raw Preferences?"
