This was announced here: http://www.openstreetmap.org/user/mcld/diary/40503
And debated extensively starting here:

You can still access the normal browser context menu by doing
Shift+Right-click in Firefox and Chrome.

It turns out that Leaflet, the JS map library that powers the map, will be
moving towards displaying the map tiles not as individual HTML images but
as a seamless canvas so even if the new OSM right-click menu wasn't
implemented, you won't be able to access the tile by right-click anyway.
But you can still use your browser dev tools to access the map tile.
