On the surface you're concerns are certainly valid, but if you actually think about how the character operates, she isn't quite so overpowered. For instance, unless she gains Accurate Shot, Retaliate would be quite easy to prevent as it would be restricted by targeting rules. Having multiples is fine, but only one would ever gain the benefits of Opportunist, and if your opponent has a way of activating a character (Stun), then it's entirely possible that none could gain it (so it's not quite a guarantee).
As for cost/power level she compares considerably with several non-uniques in that space: Felucia Clone Trooper, Peace Brigade Soldier, Galactic Alliance Special Guard, even the Storm Commando. She wouldn't be an "auto-include" at 17 points by any means, it really depends on the squad (as it should).
