I would say that it depends on the type/brand of paint you are using. We have used eggshell finish paints from Benjamin Moore and Behr and it used to be true that eggshell was the easiest to clean. However, newer paint such Benjamin Moore's Aura is very easy to clean, especially their Bath & Spa paint. It's a kitchen & bath paint, but it has a matte finish to it. It looks great and is easy to clean, yet more durable than the older kitchen & bath semi-glossy paints.
It's hard to make out what's going on from the picture but the usual culprit when spraying is either an imperfection in your fan(spray pattern) or problems with your prep work. Take your sprayer and shoot a short burst at a smooth surface (a piece of cardboard works) If the pattern shows any obvious abnormalities, it's either not enough air pressure or a defect in the tip itself (or sometimes just a goober of finish clinging to the tip). A pattern like this
is classic low pressure. A bunged tip will look less symmetrical but the streaks left in the finish can look very similar.
If the fan looks good and the problem doesn't show up on test pieces, take a hard look at the surface of your cabinets. They might need a little more scuff sanding or a good cleaning with TSP to get the grease off.

I doubt there'd be any problems. After all, when the moisture resistant paint was first put on, more than one coat would have been used, therefore it is possible to paint over it. Just make sure you give the wall a good clean (i.e. use sugar soap) before putting the new paint on.
