What do you mean, "you don't have a tab-bed window?" If you have Vim version 7, compiled with +windows (i.e., with the split-windows capability), then it also has the capability to handle several "tab pages", i.e., several "layouts" of one of more split-windows each, in a single instance of the executable. See ":help tabpage.txt" for details. For the use case discussed on this thread, you can open a window on a different tabpage with ":tabnew", do anything you want there, then close it with ":tabclose!" and you're back to wherever you were before, with your window layout undisturbed. Depending how your script works (see also ":help :silent" and ":help :redir"), it could even be possible to open and close that auxiliary tab page without anyone the wiser, but I confess I haven't tried it.
