I believe that cleaves to the Cambridge definition, given you've already thrown the idea of authorial intent out of the window. If the definition of a troll is to be intentionally offensive and I am also free to make my own assumption about their intent, then anyone I judge to be a weapon-grade irritant is a troll.

I'll edit the article to add that disclaimer, might head off further inquistitions.
