Microsoft has totally revamped the Add Step button menu while writing a workflow. I haven't used most of the new functionality yet but here's some of the cool stuff.

Perform Action
Perform action gives you access to all the actions in the system. When I say all the actions - i mean all the actions (depending on your access privilige ofcourse) including the system ones, Like below I am running Qualify Lead action on a lead.

I suppose the other section that i marked in the Add Step menu are the custom workflows but I am not sure yet.
More on actions can be found in this link from msdn.
