For the record :

=== problem ===
It's currently not possible to define OpenLayers objects linked to many 
resources as "baselayer" in GeoPrisma.  Here's the behaviors :
  - you can define a <node> that contains <children> but each <child> 
will have a radio button instead of a checkbox and the <node> (parent) 
will have a checkbox
  - it's currently not supported to have a single node that points to a 
list of resources, i.e.  <resourcenames> is currently not supported in 
the MapFishLayerTree.

=== workaround ===
Use the "alloverlays" option.

=== otherwise ===
If we wish to support this feature, we need to open a discussion / 
ticket about it.  Is it worth it ?  OpenLayers had some discussions in 
the past about "baselayers"...
