The game doesn't remember fullscreen setting when Alt + Enter is pressed

Just press Alt + Enter, quit the game and run it again. In order for RND to remember that option, you have to go to Setup and choose Save and exit.

Yes, indeed. This is not a bug, but exactly by intention. It's the same behavior as changing it in the setup menu and leaving the setup menu with "exit" instead of "save and exit" after changing it, to only change it for the current session. The idea behind this is that one might want to try out certain settings until everything is messed up ;-), then restarting the game and everything is back to those settings explicitly chosen by "save and exit" at some earlier stage.

But I agree that handling such things is not too consistent within R'n'D. For example, the level zoom factor in the level editor (or the state of the editor's game element palette sections being opened or closed) is indeed stored when changed and then restarting the game.
