Yup, that whole can't-armour-the-whole-suit, stick-a-target-on-it gag made perfect sense to me. And all the films have gone the armour-the-whole-suit path since, producing Batmen who look like they can't move their arms, let alone hit somebody.
And I've already written them a get out of jail card on this: Morgan Freeman pulls out a roll of grey-black fabric and tells Bruce Wayne about hiss new miracle fabric that is ultra flexible yet tear proof, and bingo! You've a Batman who looks like he doesn't need to be pushed from scene to scene by a couple of teamsters with a trolley.
Got any news, views, wacky links, praise, criticism, etc? Feel free to e-mail me. Unless you're some mentalist just writing out of the blue to insult me. That I can do without.

Wish it was true...
and, yeah, I would bring back the grey material costume. The Batman's chief weapons are shock, awe and agility!
I even like the yellow oval. Miller got that to work brilliantly!

Now you've said it, it sounds inevitable.
