I've changed a web page from using an embedded Google map using the "Share" 
with "HTML" option from http://www.openstreetmap.org/ having selected the tiles 
to be from Mapquest and found that it embeds exactly like that, without the OSM 
attribution. Seems like if you do it from OSM the attribution should just be 
there.

For example, plop this into a web page and look to see what you get:

<iframe width="425" height="350" frameborder="0" scrolling="no" 
marginheight="0" marginwidth="0" 
src="http://www.openstreetmap.org/export/embed.html?bbox=-119.1426,34.7812,-119.0945,34.8394&amp;layer=mapquest&amp;marker=34.81261,-119.12715";
 style="border: 1px solid black">
</iframe>

I guess I could futz with the HTML and setup my own server to be in the middle 
and have it add the attribution but that is way more than you can expect the 
average user to do.
