Hmmm, by your argument, Yugoslavia had every right to occupy its territory back. How is it that Croats can succeed from Yugoslavia but Serbs can't from Croatia? Oh that's right, the word we're looking for, boys and girls, is HYPOCRACY.

No, inviobility of internal borders.

Had the Serbs not let Slovenia go there would have been a chance to keep Yugoslavia together because the fight could have been portrayed as one of national sovereignty. But instead, Slovenia was let go and it became a fight about Serbian expanisionism.

But if you want to play the micro secession game, that means that Serbs lose Kosovo and could also lose Magyar lands in Vojvodina so as to not be "hypocritical".
