If you don't have or don't want an add-on/WA/etc for this, the way to tell the boggarts from the legit audience members is their lines when you stand near them. The following were all said by boggarts:
"What a compelling villain! I can empathize with their plight."
"I liked the one about the cats."
"Excellent use of metaphorical allegory. Yes."
"Did they even read the source material?"
"Strange. The larger creature should just consume the smaller one. Take its power!"
"What's a bard? Can you eat it?"
"I hope this one doesn't have any monsters in it."I stood by known boggarts for a bit to let them cycle through lines, it's possible there's one or two I missed, but these should get you through.

It seems to be even easier than people have said, you'll notice that "quest mob" yellow sunburst around the feet of the boggarts, the non-boggarts do not have it.
Maybe odd, but if you're tired of wasting time by accusing wrong creatures later in the expansion and have a tooltip addon to show NPC IDs, Boggarts in those groups were always the creatures showing 170080 [npc=170080] in Beta.
