One solution is to buy a stronger charging unit and get a cable adapter. For instance the this charger provides 2.1 amps, and you could use it with this cable to hook it up with the Nexus 10. This gives you 10.5 watts, which may still not be enough in heavy duty scenarios, but it's worth a try. Is it safe use? I have no idea.
