Indesign, why do you want to crop to bounding box?
PDF import options while placing a file. I want to default crop to media. In the past this has been a sort of sticky option; whatever the crop mode has last been set to stays that way for drop from desktop and stays default for import options. Lately, in cs5.5 I'm having to change this setting off of crop to bounding box every time I import a PDF page. It is slowing me down considerably as I often bring multiple-page PDFs from customer-generated content into Indesign for custom print setup.

Yeah, that'd be a real PITA.
Something's not right with your copy of InDesign; it should default consistently to the last Import Option you select as you've seen with past versions. It's the same in CS6.
I've got InDesign CS4, 5, 5.5, and 6, and I couldn't replicate what you're seeing. In each case, after doing an initial Place on a PDF file with the Place Import Options set to Media for the "Crop To", it defaults to Media with each subsequent Place, whether it be a new file, or if I close InDesign and open another file and do a Place again. I even tried changing the layout sets to see if it would make a difference - no change.
Make sure you're running the latest version of 5.5, which is 7.5.3 (Help>Updates). Other than that, doing a reinstall is the only thing that comes to mind - what you're experiencing isn't normal.
