When I retro-fitted my kitchen and replaced the range hood with one I actually disassembled the cabinet and cut it down to make sure that the microwave would be high enough. I think a lot of the time people swap them out and just give up the space.

"High Enough" is relative. If you're @Dylan W., you can mount it at 5'-0" AFF to the underside and never worry about it being in the way. The rest of us need it a bit higher than that.
Still doesn't do anything about the undersized fans, the small hood area (for collecting vapors), or the small filters. Or the fact that your microwave gets coated in greasy food vapors.

I cleaned the kitchen real good one day. Dishes,scrubbed counter tops, mopped the floor...Wife asked me why I didn't at least wipe out the microwave?
Couldnt see in there.
