I'm not too worried about the hassles of Jakarta (my other trips this year include Afghanistan & Botswana).
It will be the first week of March, so I hope the rain isn't too bad(?). I guess I can cope anyway:.
If you're set on Jakarta, then amend your day-by-day slightly so you are in KUL day before your AKL flight leaves. As in:
Day 1--arrive KUL and rest of day/overnight at KL.
Day 2--fly to CGK and rest of day Jakarta
Day 3--Jakarta
Day 4--fly back to KUL. Jakarta/KL split depends on flight timing. Overnight KL.
Day 5--KL until time to go to KUL for onward
I don't think you need that much time in KL and there's no problem with splitting up the sightseeing some before, some after Jakarta.
