No one has yet jumped in to say that you can easily do this, so let me say: I don’t think you can do this exact thing easily. One problem is that there’s no such thing as the kind of an object; many objects will have several (if a florb is a kind of container, then any given florb has kinds florb, container, thing, and object, I think). Another thing is that you can’t have a table column that mixes things and kinds; every entry in a column has to be of the same type, so you can’t have a column that contains both “coffee” (a thing) and “container” (a kind); Inform won’t know what to do with it.
One thing that you might be able to do is make two tables, the Table of Specific Microwaving with a column of things and the Table of Generic Microwaving with a column of kinds. Then you could check things to see if they’re listed in the Specific table first, and then to see if they belong to a kind listed in the Generic table. But you might not even be able to get a table with a kind column to work, and if you can I’m not sure how to check whether the noun belongs to that kind. (There’s some discussion here.)
