I cover up vegetables when cooking with the microwave and know for a fact it speeds things up and makes it tastier by steaming and by cutting down on time in the microwave.
I will defrost a frozen vegetable stir fry mix or mixed vegetables in a bowl later add 1/4 cup of water cover with a large saucer and cook in the microwave for 3-4 minutes depending on the desired result, it is acceptable but mostly easy and fast.

I sometimes nuke potatoes by sticking them with a fork and cooking them on high for 4-5 minutes. I am going to try cooking a potato in a smallish covered bowl and see how it effects cook time and quality.
It might be few days before this test as I just oven roasted 10 potatoes with the roast..
