I dont think there's going to be any sudden drastic change in their currency notes tho,as so far i have only hear on news that BI (Bank of Indonesia) has been urging (may be planning too,since President Jokowi asked for details) the Govt to take off the last 2 or 3 zeros from their currency.
From 27th July,Thursday's News article :

If there were to be changes, i think most likely it will be informed in the news 1st with some cooling off period. And being a tourist,i doubt most of us will stock up too much rupiah to the extend like this guy :

Tourist's loses wont be much since most of us usually just change what we need to spend on (even if the bank's exchange rate has hit a little above 9800/SGD today). Fear and rumors (if one can understand how they were being build up in Indonesia) may result in a weaker rupiah which more likely favor tourists,like myself.
Time will time.
