My house-mate does that. I just use the flimsy pan it came in and a 
fork. Any debris stick to the pan is a doggy treat for Izz-a-bel or
Jasper, Dennis' grand-dogs.

Oh, I do. If I'm feeling "sporty" I'll pierce the tater on one end, then
on the opposite size on the other end. Sometimes it causes the potato to
spi like a top from the escaping steam.

It's one of the very few complex things I cook in the microwave. I don't
count "steam in bag" veggies or similar as cooking, just hotting up.

      Title: Microwave Baked Potato
 Categories: Five, Potatoes
      Yield: 1 Spud
 
      1 lg Russet potato
           Salt & freshly ground pepper
           Butter or sour cream; to
           - serve
 
  Wash potato thoroughly and pat completely dry. Pierce 3
  to 4 times with a fork.
  
  Place potato on microwave-safe plate and microwave 7
  minutes, turning over halfway through cooking. If your
  potato isn't fork-tender after 7 minutes, continue
  microwaving in 1 minute increments until fully cooked.
  
  Let rest for 2 minutes.
  
  Split potato down the middle, being careful of steam.
  Season with salt and pepper, and top with butter before
  serving.
  
  UDD NOTES: Sometimes I like to fork the potato near the
  ends on opposite sides. This can make the potato spin
  like a whirl-a-gig from the escaping steam. Besides the
  butter and/or sour cream toppings I like to use shredded
  cheese and/or bacon bits sometimes. Or salsa/pico di
  gallo. Get inventive.
