While Trixie was aggressive to the hecklers in the crowd, the adults in the audience should have known better that it was just a stage performance meant mostly to entertain the children in the audience. Many real life stage magicians often refer to themselves as "The Great" and then greatly exaggerate their exploits. Since magic is common and Trixie only knew a few spells, she had to liven up her show with fireworks and tall tails. Trixie was a professional and I didn't get the feeling she would stay in Ponyville. She might of stayed there a day or so and then moved on and we would have never heard from her again. If Rarity and Applejack didn't start something.
Now Trixie lost her home and career. If some got you fired from your job and then destroyed your house, it wouldn't be unexpected if you sought revenge.

So the problem with Trixie from where I'm sitting isn't that she's boastful. Her problem is her attitude.
To be clear, Applejack, Rarity and Dash are acting super weird here. People have made the point that Trixie is clearly in the process of putting on a show, and the girls are acting as if they've just seen someone on the street bigging themselves up. Totally true.

Even the Mane Six's reaction wasn't entirely deliberate. Rainbow Dash starts boasting herself (and early RD wasn't that different from Trixie when it came to boasting), gets glared at, and tries to change the subject by loudly booing Trixie. Until then, the others had been unhappy but not actually making a spectacle of it. When RD starts shouting, though, Trixie calls them out.
