In menu-bar-mode Options > Set Default Font,
choose font size 16... save.
Now do it again.
It should have remembered our previous choice, 16.

I am not talking about saving anything to disk. Nor do I want to.
I am just talking about remembering something from something we just
adjusted.
emacs-version "26.3"

Please report this to the developers of the toolkit you are using, as
that's the software that pops up the font selection dialog.

report-emacs-bug says:

In GNU Emacs 26.3 (build 2, x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 3.24.11)
 --with-x-toolkit=gtk3 --with-toolkit-scroll-bars 'CFLAGS=-g -O2

That's all I know.

So you are using GTK+, and it's the GTK font selection dialog that
decides which font is the "current" one.  Emacs has no control of
that, AFAIK.

In emacs-27 the GTK font selection dialog has been taught to remember
the previously selected font characteristics.

Great, then I guess we can close the bug as fixed.

Thanks.
