That would be a good addition.
Another thing that might make the starting items table more "efficient" is, if any of the values (race, class, deity etc) are set to 0, they are given to all characters that match the other parameters. Starting food could have an 0 in all these flags, so all characters get it, whilst a "Short Sword*" could be assigned to all the classes that get it, but with an 0 in the race and deity flags.
