At least from beta 6 (rev.: 1032854M) the "Map searches"
has a button "Map settings" where one can select Openstreetmap.

As far as I know, there is now support currently for additional
maps (Though in principle this should be doable when
marble supports the corresponding kml elements
(GroundOverlay and LatLonBox) ).

Best, Arnd
