To me, the draft guideline is what I expect, and it is clear concerning the issue mentioned : "The attribution format should not require individuals to interact with the map or produced work to see the attribution."
I read it that user has to see 'OpenStreetMap' without clicking or tapping a (i), no matter what.

Yves
