Most of the functions for the door go though the window switch box so I'm betting like on e53, water got in and caused corrosion and is the source of the problem. I'm not sure why passenger side gets power when car is off but likely to turn on the welcome light when the handle is tugged.
There is virtually no chance of a fix without opening the door but that process is not terrible. Use an extending break off razor knife with 3-4" exposed to cut through the goo adhesive and a heat gun to soften to reactivate when putting back together.
One "duh" method to kill the pet l power drain is to remove the lamp but can you do from outside or do you have to pull the door panel anyhow?

Urgh! I love the puddle lights at night it's a classy touch but what a pain in the a**! It flat out sucks that it won't shut off through the settings. What exactly would I have to replace? The light itself? Or the whole door handle [as in unattach cables and reattach?]
&*%$$#@!!
