Depends on the width of the road. Look, if someone is going to drive like that, anything you do is going to be wrong. What's to stop someone from swerving into your backside if you follow the cede 10 foot rule? I've certainly seen drivers do dumber.
i try not to have fixed rules that override my immediate sense of what I should do in the immediate situation. Mostly, I focus on being so visible in the intersection that someone really has to want to hit me if they don't avoid me. It's not my job to facilitate efficient right turns, and I will not sacrifice any margin of safety to do so.
