Hi Paolo,

agreed, that eliminate does not solve the "mouse-tail" problem. It aims at getting rid of sliver polygons resulting from processing input layers having been digitized on different maps or scales.

it depends...
Processing works as follows: take input layer(s) - do a process - create output 
layer
So if the "process" is a selection the result is an output layer with only the
selected features included.
Therefore for "eliminate" I included a simple logical selection based on a 
field in
the layer. Thus to use eliminate in a model you first have to create an input 
layer
with a field that somehow marks all features to be eliminated (e.g. caluclate
area/perimeter). Currently I do not know how this can be achieved. :-(
Any hints welcome.

IMHO the approach should be different: eliminating features a posteriori is 
always
feasible, but very inefficient, and it does not solve the "mouse tail" problem: 
a
valid feature is created, but attached to it hangs a close-to-zero-area that 
results
from different approximation of coordinate values.
This may seem a corner case, but is indeed preventing effective analyses in 
real cases.
All the best.
