Actually if you avoid killing ambushes, patrols and the leaders until you grabbed the 4 glowies and get Mission Completed you can kill everything in the map without worrying about a mission failure.
Also, the glowies in that mission are always in the same places. The map doesn't change.

I'm pretty sure they're not in the same places, or sometimes even in the same rooms, since they always shift around on me.|

But, yeah. The two things you must avoid killing are the one patrol and the one boss. Everything else is fair game. And if you can grab the glowies first, you can kill those, too, after your mission is complete.

Oh, I just grabbed all the glowies before we started killing everything. 
What I wanted to know was if the ambushes would have kept on coming. They were pretty nasty. They chased us no matter how far we ran ... and you had to be careful not to rez in the room where the ambush was triggered or they immediately went after you, even if you were teleported away.
And I do think the glowies may shift around a little bit. They tend to be in the same three rooms, but sometimes you get two in one room, and sometimes two in another.

The same rooms, but not the same locations in each room.
1 down in the room with the glowing walls,
1 in the dead-end room with the towers,
2 in the final room.

You have total only 2 or 3 ambushes. They'd stop after that.|

I love last mission of Dark Watcher's arc, where you have 21 ambush

Right, while not in the exact same places every time the locations are still predictable.|

If you can grab all the glowies the mission will complete, then you can kill Rikti to your hearts content.
