Interesting that Lady Shiva isn't on this poll. She's defintely a Batman villain (a whole story arc based on her training Bruce went on for over a year in the comics).
Shiva seems a another perfect fit for the Nolanverse, and she's a lot less played out than Catwoman. Shiva is a supreme martial artist and assassin. Nothing too unrealistic. She could be a figure from Bruce's past (either studying martial together under another master, or her helping train him). And she could also double up as a love interest (though they've never gone that direction in the comics).
Done right, it could be a Batman film version of Frank Miller's classic DareDevil and Elektra story arc.
