Blender Dynatopo sculpting tools are great, however there was an essential missing feature. The ability to save masks as vertex groups and changing vertex groups to masks. Note: Only dynatopo can be used, multi-res won't work.
I have made an add-on which supports this functionality: Mask Tools.

Keep heading in this general direction with the Sculpt tools, guys! So much potential yet tapped!
Hopefully, someday, we might see masking by various features (peaks, valley, AO, etc.)! Layers! Mesh management ("subtools")! Kit-bashing ability! Global deformation features like Inflate and Smooth Edges! Dynamic remeshing!
I hope whatever next project Blender eventually does, it focuses more on better completing the existing modes, like Sculpt Mode and Texture Paint Mode. There's no reason why Blender can't be a sort of free alternative to ZBrush!
