When a new tab is created, the TabEnter autocmd is executed after creating
a new window. It is not expected that the autocmd will change the current
window. As the ":cwindow" command creates a new window (quickfix) and
changes the current window, you are seeing the above problem.
You can fix this problem, by using the following function:
function! s:OpenQfWindow()
cwindow
if &buftype == 'quickfix'
wincmd p
endif
endfunction
augroup Open_QuickFix_On_Every_Tab
au!
autocmd TabEnter * call s:OpenQfWindow()
augroup END
