Actually scratch that. Only sources from MAP_BASELAYERSOURCES that are used by one of the layers in MAP_BASELAYERS show up in the Available Layers dropdown. The only other way for adding a permanent layer source right now is to modify geonode/maps/models.py and add it in the uniquify method (see https://github.com/GeoNode/geonode/blob/master/src/GeoNodePy/geonode/maps/models.py#L1281).
