Why does the galley light dim when the cockpit door is open?

Hi everyone.

Just a question out of pure interest...why does the forward galley light dim when the cockpit door is open? I suspect there must be a particular reason for this as it seems pretty consistent across all aircraft/airlines. Isn't this just drawing attention to passengers that the cockpit door is open?
