Creating a new layer removes mask....very annoying

Creating a new layer removes mask…very annoying

-example, i have a mask applied and want to retain, creating a new layer removes my mask…bug?
Would like it to retain masks when creating a new layer…

-would also be great to be able to turn your mask on and off (not viewmask on/off), but actually disable/enable your mask retaining your mask.

You can basically do that using Polygroups.

Not a bug. It´s because Layer keeps the Color, sculpt and masking information. So when you create a new layer you have an empty making recording there.
So if you want to turn on and off multiple masks just need to paint the mask in each layer as if it were polypaint. Then open or close the eye icon in layers will work as on/off switch
