So, I'm a little lost on how this concept solves the original problem
here.  A free-form field means these users could continue to identify as a
part of Albania.

It also means that we could then ask them to stop doing that without forcing them to identify as being in Serbia.

That is, it would create a _mechanism_ for an accurate identification here. Whether that mechanism is used is then a policy decision...

Isn't that more divisive and controversial than allowing
Kosovo into the list?

I'm not sure what you mean. Even if, today, we had Kosovo in the list, people could still pick "Albania" from the list instead just like they did already. What would be do in that situation? Presumably ask them politely to change to "Kosovo" instead, yes?
