So, in a nutshell:
You will no longer have to touch the tax scales, unless there is unrest somewhere.
Am i correct?

But i still want to know what Desert Sun gives you...

Raising taxes is more intended as a way to raise cash in dire situations under the new system, the unrest effect of raisning taxes has also been toned down somewhat, so there still might be times where you want to raise taxes, but as a rule of thumb you should stick with 100 unless you need to get rid of unrest.
Desert sun will spread you required heat 3 outside of your dominion. It might be useful for Abysia or Machacka if they decide to go for heat 3.
