Isn't there a fast divide by N counter that you could set to 10? Maybe even
in ECL?

The 74xx16y are 4 bit loadable counters.  2 are binary, 2 are decimal.
I think 1 of each pair has a synchronous reset/clear, the other is async.

Mouser has the 74AC161 and 74AC163 in stock.  They are binary.
I think you need an inverter to hook up the ripple carry out to load them to
6 to make a divide by 10.
