It's pretty common for people to complain about Open vSwitch
documentation, but most of those people haven't actually read it!
ovs-appctl is an interface to execute commands in a running daemon, so
the documentation is in the ovs-vswitchd manpage, not the ovs-appctl
manpage.
The ovs-appctl manpage even says this, quite clearly in my opinion:
Open vSwitch daemons accept certain commands at runtime to control
their behavior and query their settings. Every daemon accepts a common
set of commands documented under COMMON COMMANDS below. Some daemons
support additional commands documented in their own manpages.
ovs-vswitchd in particular accepts a number of additional commands doc-
umented in ovs-vswitchd(8).
