No thanks. The last thing I want to see is Batman telling Vixen how to use her own powers, him treating her like one of his operatives and her having to deal with his moodiness and all the other baggage he's got. Not to mention I'd hate for people who aren't that familiar with Vixen to start thinking she is a Batman character.

No. Even putting aside my own dislike of creators blatantly self-inserting as Batman and hooking him up with various other heroines (Black Canary (Miller), Zatanna & Diana (Dini), Lois (Snyder), etc), Batman already has so many other LIs. He’s got Catwoman and Talia as his main romances, teases with Diana, Mari gets absolutely nothing as a character from being in a relationship. At best it’s a fling where she’s just another conquest for his fanboys to boast about, at worst she becomes another Batman hanger-on, used to prop him up when writers want to, unable to really move on because she keeps getting dragged back into his orbit. It can’t go anywhere and it just wastes time that could be spent in developing Mari as a character elsewhere.
If you want that Batman archetype though, Bronze Tiger works just fine (yeah I’m shilling my ship what of it?)

I just remembered that they paired Vixen with B'wana Beast on Batman: The Brave and the Bold.
Bruce and Mari had a moment....

Some of us wait, some of us act.
Its a crown, as befitting a queen.
Seriously though, what was the inspiration behind her hair?
