Maybe change it into "for common transaction types" ? It certainly does not entirely fix it.

Ok will clarify. I actually mean malleability of signatures for CHECK(MULTI)SIG(VERIFY). BIP66+BIP146 should fix it entirely

NULLDUMMY is a trivial softfork to fix malleability related to the extra stack element consumed by CHECKMULTISIG(VERIFY). NULLDUMMY is probably more important than LOW_S since without that an attacker may replace the stack element with any value.
