3 years ago I also have desire to make patch that provide highlighting of '::'
as comment syntax and want 'M-;' (comment-dwim) be able uncomment such regions
as I involved in project with many batch files with such commenting style...

There a lot of batch-file modes for Emacs:
http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/DosScripts
* http://emacswiki.org/emacs/batch-mode.el
* http://emacswiki.org/emacs/cmd-mode.el
I don't try them as don't like any external dependency (but "apt-get install"
accept).
So stuck with bat-generic-mode. Feature that I like and which is missing is an
indentation for batch parentheses syntax:
if exist file.txt (
echo xxx
) else (
echo yyy
)

Best regards!
