This is a spin-off from Move editor name in biblatex bibliography, in which the editor string "edited by X" in a biblatex bibliography is replaced by "X edited" (and with the word "edited" translated in the local language".

The accepted answer extends this to cases where there's an article in a collection (@incollection entry), cf. the Weinreich 1968 entry in the MWE below.

What I would like as well, is this: When I'm citing a part of a book (with its own title and author, the @inbook entry), I'd like the authors of the book to follow the title of the book in a string "X wrote", parallel with the "X edited" case mentioned above.

For the Torp 1909 entry in the MWE below, then, I'd like it to look like this:

Torp, Alf. 1909. Gamalnorsk ordavleiding. Gamalnorsk ordbok. Med nynorsk tyding. Marius Hægstad og Alf Torp skreiv. Kristiania: Det norske samlaget (Landsmaals-laget), s. xxviii-lxxi.

How can I achieve this?

The names in question are printed by the bibmacro bybookauthor that needs to be redefined analogous to byauthor

\renewbibmacro*{bybookauthor}{%
  \ifnamesequal{author}{bookauthor}
    {}
    {\printnames[bybookauthor]{bookauthor}%
     \setunit{\addspace}%
     \usebibmacro{bytypestrg}{bookauthor}{author}}}

By default bybookauthor is called before the boobktitle is printed. If we want to print the names after the title, we need to change the position of the macro in the driver. This can be done with xpatch's \xpatchbibdriver

\xpatchbibdriver{inbook}
  {\usebibmacro{bybookauthor}%
   \newunit\newblock}
  {}
  {}{}

\xpatchbibdriver{inbook}
  {\usebibmacro{byeditor+others}}
  {\usebibmacro{bybookauthor}%
   \newunit\newblock
   \usebibmacro{byeditor+others}}
  {}{}
