3400G

Blender Version
Broken: blender-4.0.0-beta+v40.3f633503d34e-linux.x86_64-release.tar.xz
Worked: blender-3.6.5-candidate+v36.ba8cadad0053-linux.x86_64-release.tar.xz

Short description of error
Please note, reporting an UI issue, not render. Thank you!

While renders closely match (allowing for recent changes), opening Blender 3.6 files in Blender 4.0 / 4.1 Area lights UI Power values appear to be incorrect (no longer match).

Blender 3.6 - Area lights correct UI Power value.jpg Blender 4.0 - Area lights incorrect UI Power value.jpg

In comparison, other light types UI Power values remain the same.

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
Compare following .blend file in both 3.6 and 4.0 / 4.1.
