When working with simple perfboard (just holes,
no 'traces' connecting
the holes) how does one connect the components
together? I'm guessing by
using jumper wires for point-to-point wiring on
the backside, but that
seems a bit ugly.

It is often done with wire on the backside of the
board.
Sometimes the perforated ground and power strips
from vector are used.
If there are a lot of connections, wiring is done
on the top, fed through and soldered on the back.
Wire can be grouped into routing channels and tied
to the board. (I use 4 pound Monofilament as a
tie.)

Vector board is not suitable for RF except for
very simple circuits.
