How do I get the "await using" syntax correct?

I have the following synchronous code, which works fine:

    private void GenerateExportOutput()
    {
        using StreamWriter writer = new(Coordinator.OutputDirectory + @"\export.txt");

        if (this.WikiPagesToExport.IsEmpty)
        {
            return;
        }

        var wanted = new SortedDictionary<string, WikiPage>(this.WikiPagesToExport, StringComparer.Ordinal);
        foreach (var title in wanted.Keys)
        {
            writer.WriteLine(title);
        }
    }

I want to change it to be asynchronous. So:

    private async Task GenerateExportOutputAsync()
    {
        using StreamWriter writer = new(Coordinator.OutputDirectory + @"\export.txt");

        if (this.WikiPagesToExport.IsEmpty)
        {
            return;
        }

        var wanted = new SortedDictionary<string, WikiPage>(this.WikiPagesToExport, StringComparer.Ordinal);
        foreach (var title in wanted.Keys)
        {
            await writer.WriteLineAsync(title).ConfigureAwait(false);
        }

        await writer.FlushAsync().ConfigureAwait(false);
    }

Which compiles. But one of the analyzers I use (Meziantou.Analyzer) now suggests that I "prefer using 'await using'". I've never used await using (though I've tried several times in the past and have always run into the same problems I'm running into now). But I would like to use it, so:

        await using StreamWriter writer = new StreamWriter(OutputDirectory + @"\export.txt").ConfigureAwait(false);

Now it no longer compiles: CS0029 Cannot implicitly convert type 'System.Runtime.CompilerServices.ConfiguredAsyncDisposable' to 'System.IO.StreamWriter'. OK, fine, so I change it to use var instead:

        await using var writer = new StreamWriter(OutputDirectory + @"\export.txt").ConfigureAwait(false);

Which gets it past the CS0029, but now the later code doesn't compile: Error CS1061 'ConfiguredAsyncDisposable' does not contain a definition for 'WriteLineAsync' (and a similar one for FlushAsync. Soooo... maybe cast it?

            await ((StreamWriter)writer).WriteLineAsync(title).ConfigureAwait(false);

Nope: Error CS0030 Cannot convert type 'System.Runtime.CompilerServices.ConfiguredAsyncDisposable' to 'System.IO.StreamWriter'

I've googled a bunch and read a bunch, both now and several times in the past, but I just have been completely unable to figure out how to use this "await using" thing. How can I do so? Thanks.

The await using syntax currently (C# 10) leaves a lot to be desired, regarding its support for configuring the awaiting of IAsyncDisposables. The best we can do is this:

private async Task GenerateExportOutputAsync()
{
    StreamWriter writer = new(Coordinator.OutputDirectory + @"\export.txt");
    await using (writer.ConfigureAwait(false))
    {
        //...
    }
}

...which is not really much more compact than not using the await using syntax at all:

private async Task GenerateExportOutputAsync()
{
    StreamWriter writer = new(Coordinator.OutputDirectory + @"\export.txt");
    try
    {
        //...
    }
    finally { await writer.DisposeAsync().ConfigureAwait(false); }
}
